Thank you to all families who donated to our food drive, and to all staff and students who participated in our spirit days. We had a lot of fun seeing the creativity and joy that came with the various outfits and hairstyles. Our spirit day committee is working to organize some additional events. Stay tuned for some more spirit days in the future.

We would like to wish you all a Happy Holidays, and hope that you have a restful, safe and healthy break, in whichever way you choose to spend your time. Thank you for all of your efforts in support of your child(ren)’s learning here at Marion Carson School so far this year, and we look forward to seeing everyone back at school when classes resume on January 8, 2024.
