Dear Topper Families,
The snow is falling, and the holiday season is upon us as we enter November. We are grateful for the in person time we have had with our students and count each day as a blessing.
We will also tweak the class starting times on Wednesdays to better accommodate an online schedule for all grade levels and additional student support time. The online school day will begin at 9:00 am. An updated Daily Schedule can be found here.
Period 2: 9:45 am Period 3: 10:30 am Period 4: 11:15 am Lunch: 12:00 pm Period 5: 12:45 pm Period 6: 1:30 pm Period 7: 2:15 pm

**Due to the 2 recent positive cases in our school community that we learned about today, grades 7-12 will be online Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday this week. Additional information will be communicated after we consult with MDH for further guidance.
SCHOOL PICTURES Students received their school pictures on Thursday through their advisors. If you did not purchase pictures before Picture Day, there is information about how to order pictures included in the envelope your child(ren) received. If you would like to have the picture retaken, students must return the entire picture package on Retake Day and can have their picture retaken at no extra charge.
UPPER SCHOOL COMMUNITY SERVICE REQUIREMENT Due to the challenges associated with health and safety during the COVID-19 pandemic, upper school students will have their community service graduation requirement reduced by 10 hours. Students may continue to submit service hours for approval counting toward their graduation requirement, but no students are required to perform community service with an external organization during the 2020-21 school year. We will continue to post service opportunities to Schoology as they come our way, and we encourage families to consider the health and safety guidelines of the service venue prior to their student participating in a service opportunity.

BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION Marshall collects Box Tops for Education to help fund the senior cruise aboard the Vista at the end of the school year. If you purchase items with the Box Tops for Education logo, there are two ways you can help: If you find this logo on our purchase, you can clip the Box Tops and have your student drop them off with Jeana Marshak in the Main Office. If you find this logo on your purchase, you can scan your receipt using the Box Tops app.
