VPA Art Fundraiser Information: This semester, our school is participating in a unique fundraising program with Art to Remember that gives you the opportunity to purchase keepsake items with your child's artwork on them. The best part is that every keepsake order supports our school in buying a pottery kiln.
Order forms for Art to Remember will be sent home with students on Monday, November 4th and are due back by Monday, November 11th. To see available keepsake items like coffee mugs, key chains, and necklaces, visit ArtToRemember.com
Music literacy in action! Getting ready for Christmas!
Storybook Pumpkins!
Marion Visual & Performing Arts Magnet School Library recently grew a Storybook Pumpkin Patch! Students in all grades were encouraged to decorate a pumpkin to look like a favorite storybook character. Our creative and talented students did a magnificent job!
Tickets are still available at MSD Central Office until 4 p.m. or at the door tomorrow night.
Good evening Patriot Parents,
Tomorrow, your student will bring home a paper packet of work. These packets will have 5 days worth of work. This work will be used in the event the district is closed due to inclement weather or for any other reason. There will be a cover sheet explaining the procedure on how and when to complete the work. Please keep these packets in a safe place. If you have any questions please call your building administration. Thank you and have a wonderful evening.

A MESSAGE FROM ASU Mid-South:
We need your help. Only 16 days left.
As you may know, October 5 is our 2nd Left Bank Festival, our event to raise money for Greyhound men’s and women’s athletic scholarships. Last year was our inaugural event and we learned so much about how to make this year even more fantastic. We have one amazing event planned.
So what do we need from you, you ask? Well, I’m so glad you asked!
We need you to tell everyone you know. We need you to talk it up. We need you to go to our Left Bank Facebook page and share our posts on your own Facebook pages. Share on your Instagram pages. Email your friends and help us spread awareness. We need you to encourage your friends and families to come out and run(or walk) one of the races. We need you to come out and enjoy the amazing music that is lined up to play. We need you to come out and cheer on the cooking teams in the catfish cooking competition. In short, we need you!

Dear Friends,
After watching the latest PATCAST, I came away humbled. I don’t take for granted the people who trusted Fred Leonard and I enough to buy-in what all the Hometown Showdown entails. At the center of this trust is the belief that we are put on God’s green Earth to make a difference. What have we done for the least of these? I ask this question, knowing that I’m cloaked in human frailty. I’m not perfect. We all aren’t.
However, there comes these rare moments when you know that what you are doing is right. The fact that we all are working together to make a difference in the lives of those who are going through battles that we cannot imagine. We can certainly answer the question above.
Here’s to you Patriot Nation. Watch this video and be blessed.
