Thanksgiving Gift Card Drive: Help SOMSD Families!
Help put Thanksgiving meals on the tables of SOMSD families in need! Our district PTAs and HSAs, The Parenting Center, Cougar Cares, and the Achieve Foundation are working together to raise $28,000 to provide $100 grocery gift cards to 280 local families. We're already over halfway to our goal, but we need your help to get there! Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. Donate by November 6 to help our neighbors enjoy a special Thanksgiving.
5th Grade Movie Night:
It's our first Fifth Grade event of the year! Join us on Fri, November 20, from 6:30 - 9 pm in the Marshall Cafeterium. Wear your comfy clothes, bring a stuffie or sleeping bag, and enjoy pizza, popcorn, candy, and a raffle (one free ticket per student), and vote for which movie we watch: The Sandlot, Despicable Me, or Hook. RSVP here and check out more details on the 5th Grade website. This one is for Marshall 5th graders only!
We Did It, Marshall!
Thanks to our incredible Marshall community, we didn't just reach our $15,000 Move-a-thon goal, we surpassed it! A huge thank you to everyone who donated, shared our fundraiser, and helped spread the word, and to our amazing volunteers who gave their time and energy to make the day such a success. We're so grateful for the way this community continues to show up for our Owls. We couldn't have done it without you! Meant to donate but life got in the way? There's still time! A little extra support would help us cover Fall Fest, the Book Fair, and more. Every bit helps! Donate here.
