Dear Marshall Families,
It was great seeing so many of you at our Back to School Nights last week! We had a fantastic turnout. Thank you to everyone who stopped by.
I hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend. Remember, there is no school tomorrow, September 2, in observance of Labor Day. School resumes on Tuesday morning.
If your child was absent or unable to participate in Picture Day on Friday, we have make-ups scheduled for Friday, September 20.
The Marshall community elected Karthika Arunachalam and Shubham Mehta to School Site Council in last week’s online balloting. Congratulations! Thank you to all the candidates who put their names in, as well as to everyone who voted. The first SSC meeting of the year will take place on Thursday evening.
We have several upcoming opportunities for students who love math. First off, Marshall Mathcounts is getting ready to kick off another year! In the past year, Marshall Middle has ranked among the top middle schools in San Diego in the Mathcounts Competition. Join the club to sharpen your math skills, tackle diverse problems, and make new friends. Sign up for our upcoming information session here: https://forms.gle/m55M2FTWQmttEF9S9 .
This year Marshall introduces the Math Olympiad Team for the 2024-2025 season.

Marshall also is looking to field a team for MATHCON - North America's Prestigious Math Competition for the 2024-2025 season. The initial round would be an online test, and the nationwide top performers would represent Marshall Middle School in the finals in Chicago.
