Benjamin, we love how much you enjoy learning. Keep up the excellent enthusiasm!
Margot, you are such a nice friend, and your kindness is appreciated in the classroom!
Holiday dress-up days at the Jr./Sr. High School are set! Let's get creative and go into the holidays with some fashionable festive wear.
Marlette Elementary Reminder: Dress-up Days start tomorrow!
The annual Marlette Elementary Giving Tree is decorated and shining brightly in the school's lobby to help those in need during this holiday season. All toys stay in the Marlette community through Marlette Toys for Tots.
If you'd like to help, you can donate any unwrapped toy for a boy or girl from infant to 12 before Thursday, December 14th, or you can send a check to Marlette Elementary School, Attn: Giving Tree, 6230 Euclid St., Marlette, MI 48453 and we can purchase toys for you.
The school will be open from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm during school days, and donations can be placed in the container in the lobby.
Marlette Community Schools wishes to thank the Marlette PTO and 50 volunteers for the time and energy they put forth to make the Santa's Shop a massive success for our elementary students.
Your generosity is indicative of the spirit of the season in Marlette.
Best wishes for a victorious performance to both teams. Go Red Raiders!
Ms. Laursen's class earned all their letters this month for the word LEADER by being Ready, Respectful, and Responsible in the hallways and around the school. The class chose to watch The Grinch as their prize!
