Message From the Principal

It is hard to believe that we are entering the final weeks of the school year! June is always one of the most exciting times at Marion Cross School. While there is certainly plenty of anticipation about summer vacation, there is also a tremendous amount of learning, celebration, and community-building packed into these final days.

Across the school, students are participating in end-of-year field trips that bring classroom learning to life and create lasting memories with classmates and teachers. Classrooms are buzzing with special projects, writing celebrations, performances, outdoor learning experiences, and unique traditions that make this season so special. We have also enjoyed several wonderful REPs that have highlighted student talents, accomplishments, and the strong sense of community that makes MCS such a special place.

Students are also wrapping up end-of-year assessments. These assessments provide valuable information about student growth and help us celebrate the incredible progress that has taken place over the course of the year. We are proud of the hard work, perseverance, and learning that our students have demonstrated.

As exciting as summer vacation is, there is also something magical about these final weeks together. The hallways are filled with laughter, classrooms are busy with meaningful activities, and there is a sense of accomplishment as students reflect on all they have learned and experienced this year.

Thank you to families, staff, and students for making Marion Cross School such a vibrant and joyful place to learn. We look forward to making the most of every remaining day together before we send our students off for a well-deserved summer break. We still have Field Day, Sixth Grade Celebration, Farewell REP, and so much more to accomplish before the year ends!

Have a wonderful weekend,
Shawn

Student Services Update

As we head into the final stretch of the school year, it’s a great time to keep home routines steady and supportive. 

Regular sleep, healthy meals, time for homework, and scheduled downtime are essential and can help students feel their best during these busy and exciting last weeks.

The end of the year can bring lots of big feelings, especially with all the special school events and the mix of excitement and goodbyes. Adding a few fun closure activities can help, like writing a note to a teacher or classmates, making a summer friendship plan, or sharing a favorite memory from the year. These simple moments can help students celebrate all they’ve accomplished and head into summer feeling connected and proud.

Have a great weekend,
Greg
