The Preschool class has been learning about the life cycle of a butterfly! 🦋 They read The Very Impatient Caterpillar and patiently waited as they observed the transformation process. After two weeks, the butterflies were finally ready to emerge from their chrysalises! What an exciting and memorable learning experience for our preschoolers! 🌸

With Teacher Appreciation Week in our rearview window, we wanted to say thank you again to everyone who helped make it a great week for our staff and to share a couple of videos (one from our student council and one from some 5th graders).
This week, Marion School’s Middle School students took a field trip to Ashfall Fossil Beds State Historical Park! 🦴🌋
Students had an amazing time learning about Nebraska’s prehistoric past, exploring real fossil beds, and discovering how volcanic ash preserved ancient animals millions of years ago. It was a fun and educational experience filled with hands-on learning and great memories! 🚌📚

Bio II students got to visit the Prairie Roots Produce farm in rural Freeman. They got a tour of the greenhouses and plant beds, they helped plant green bean seedlings with a Japanese paper pot seeder and they also got to pick and sample some fresh radishes and turnips. The highlight though was petting a newborn lamb that was just born yesterday! Thank you Andre and Lillie Eisenbeis for showing us your farming operation!

Hello Middle School Parents! Just a friendly reminder about the Middle School field trip TOMORROW, Wednesday, May 6. Please have your children be at the school by 7:10am or sooner so we can promptly leave at 7:15am. Also don't forget to send a sack lunch with kids if they aren't getting school lunch. It might be chilly so tennis shoes, a jacket or hooded sweatshirt would be good. Thanks so much!

The second graders learned about pioneer life through hands-on experiences with Discovery Packs from the Siouxland Heritage Museum. They used tools from long ago such as a corn planter, butter churn, and rug beater. Students dressed in pioneer clothing and played games such as "Who's Got the Button", "Snatch a Hat", "Drop the Handkerchief", "Old Bowler", and "Nine Pins."
