FALL PICTURE RETAKE DAY
Fall picture retake day is scheduled for November 7, 2024.
PAX INFORMATION
Each day we recite the PAX pledge and discuss what it means to be an excellent PAX leader. This week, we learned about Maud Marshall, who our school was named after. Ms. Marshall was a first-grade teacher at Hanover Township School. She taught for 51 years where she served our community and children. Our school was built originally in 1967 and named after her! Maud Marshall’s picture hung in the library for many years, now her picture is all around our school.
Maud is our elementary building namesake and the ultimate PAX leader! Since Maud was a great PAX Leader in our community, when students see her around they will be able to check that they are being a PAX Leader too! Students can stop, think, and GO PAX!
