MES Weekly Scoop
It's A Great Day to Be A Bulldog! Bulldogs Don't Quit!
Principal's Note
January 13-17, 2025
Dear Students, Staff, and Families,
I am excited to welcome everyone back for the second week of the second semester and hopefully a FULL week of school! As we dive into 2025, we want to share a few important reminders and updates:
Attendance Matters
Regular attendance is key to student success! Please continue to prioritize getting your child to school on time each day. Together, we can work to reduce chronic absenteeism and ensure students have the best opportunity to learn and grow.
Weather Reminder
With colder temperatures upon us, please make sure your child comes to school dressed appropriately for the weather. Students will go outside for recess if the "feels like" temperature is 20 degrees or higher, so warm coats, hats, and gloves are essential.
Upcoming Dates
- January 20th: Professional Development Day (No school for students)
- January 23rd: MES Spelling Bee for grades 5th and 6th -- We look forward to celebrating our students and cheering on the TOP 6 that will compete in the Marshall County Spelling Bee on Tuesday, February 11th at 10 AM-Marysville Junior/Senior High Auditorium.
Thank you for your continued support for our students and staff. Let's make it a great semester!
Warm Regards,
Mrs. Janine Doebele
Marysville Elementary Principal

Parent HANDBOOK Policy
Marysville Elementary is committed to academic growth for all students. Assessments are a critical part of measuring student progress and guiding instruction.
Our school uses the CHAMPS Framework to promote a positive learning environment. Students demonstrating readiness, respectfulness, and responsibility may receive positive office referrals and recognition.
We have a matrix system that we use for minor, moderate, and major infractions. Minor infractions (disruptive behavior, non-compliance, etc.) are typically handled by the classroom teacher and may result in a think sheet, parent contact, or detention. Moderate infractions (chronic minor behaviors, threats, cheating, etc.) may result in those previously listed as well as an office referral or suspension. Major infractions (chronic behaviors, violence, etc.) are handled by administrators and you will be notified to discuss the consequences further. For more information see our Behavior System Handbook on the USD 364 website.
January 13-17~ Breakfast and Lunch Menus
Please note for lunch, there is only one option at this time. We apologize for the inconvenience and will notify families when this changes. Please keep in mind that the students are offered salad, veggies, and fruit from the salad bar daily.
