ALL BULLDOG
May 6-12, 2024 Marysville Jr/Sr High School
Principal's Note
It's Teacher Appreciation Week starting tomorrow. We also have Nurse Appreciation Day on Wednesday. There are a number of organizations and people who are going to do some cool stuff for our staff this week starting with our Student Council Monday. They have arranged for Fire and Ice to be here and are picking up the tab on teachers' lunches. It will continue all week with little things here and there. Students, you can honor teachers any way you want this week, but the ultimate honor would be a simple thank you and showing them that love and respect that they've given you all year. Thanks, teachers and our school nurse for all you do every day!
