Every month, we serve around 23,000 lunches and 7,000 breakfasts, ensuring students are nourished and ready to learn. No student is ever turned away from a meal, but unpaid lunch debt continues to rise.

As we round out Teacher Appreciation Week, we’re reminded that the impact of a great educator lasts far beyond the classroom. 💫
Whether it’s offering a listening ear, sparking curiosity, or encouraging confidence, our MISD staff shape lives every single day.
Thank you for being the steady, inspiring force our students count on. 🙌

Parkview preschoolers planted grass seeds and took time to look at the roots that are soaking up water and nutrients. They also gave their grass a haircut! #misdinspire #parkviewinspire

Congratulations to our students on completion of the latest Community Build. We are proud of your work and your contributions to our Marion community. #TeamMarion #MISDOwnYourFuture #MISDinspire




Members of the Marion Boys' Soccer Team came to play at recess with our K-2 students today. The idea was led by one of our former students and current member of the boys' soccer team who made a plan, reached out to Mrs. Harmer, and organized the day. The students loved learning more about the game of soccer and running around with the "big boys"! #lesinspire #misdinspire
