Our next VMS FASTWORKS session will be on Thursday, March 12 from 5:30-7:00 pm in the VMS cafeteria. Fastworks is fun, free, and all are invited! This night out includes pizza dinner for the family, prizes, and fun for everyone. Register by Friday 3/6 at BIT.LY/FASTWORKS.

MHSAP families had a special treat today, as it was the grand opening of the Marion Homeschool's very own pop-up coffee shop, Family Grounds! This was possible due to a collaboration with MHS's Wolf Pack Cafe through the TAP program to help students work on work readiness skills. Thomas is a Marion High School student and Jillian is a homeschool student, and they made a great team. They were very busy and sold many strawberry lemonades, coffees and caramel lattes. The future of Family Grounds is going to potentially be a rotating responsibility where different families sign up to host the cart. Great work Thomas and Jillian, and thank you to all the customers who supported Family Grounds!!

Our winter assembly was bursting with entertainment and fun - a great way for our students to express their interests and promote school spirit. Go wolves! Watch some clips at this link: https://youtu.be/FCM5kfq1Pvs

The Work Experience Class at MHS assembled cake kits for the MISD Food Pantry. Because these kits use shelf-stable ingredients, they last longer, are easy to store, and are ready whenever a celebration pops up.

A huge thank you to the Marion City Council for the generous donation that made this project possible. Your support helps our students build real-world skills and helps our community celebrate moments that matter.
