What an experience Mrs. Elsa Scott's classes have had during National Hispanic Heritage Month! Pictured, is their rendition of Hispanic Heritage Month -a collage of the different activities and scenarios from Spanish-speaking countries.
Yesterday, Melanie Brown's classes were part of an amazing activity on Developmental Relationships. Kennidi Ridgell, our School Based Site Coordinator from Arkansas Foundation for Medical Care, facilitated this activity to help identify healthy and unhealthy relationships. Students also learned how to set boundaries, have difficult conversations, and understand why these things are important. They learned how to be self-aware and practice good self-care. Thanks Ms. Brown and Ms. Ridgell.
Today, Tate Anderson from Williams Baptist University paid our MHS students a visit to inform them about available degree programs and a possible future as student at the university.
Congratulations to this year's Marion High School Homecoming Court!
Mr. Joel Payne, VP of Sales and Operations with the SMS group in Osceola, came today to speak to some of our classes about the steel industry in Arkansas.

Ms. Rakestraw's MHS Oral Comm. classes do what's called a "no-talking day" during their nonverbal communication unit. Well, that day is back and the students will do it tomorrow, Sept. 9. All students will have a form for teachers to sign AT THE END of class stating that they didn't use verbal communication during class. (Of course, there are exceptions.) Good luck, students!
Today, students in Ms. Thompson's Craft Club celebrated leadership election results.
Congratulations to Mrs. Dionne Harris for winning Lucky Duck of the week!
September is the month that students and parents should begin attending college fairs and begin the college application process. Many colleges even waive application fees. We highly encourage taking advantage of these free opportunities.
