In Mrs. Wolfe-Kerker’s 6th grade teen living classes, students learned new skills in their textile unit. They created their own puppet “monsters” and aprons by practicing patterns, sewing on buttons, and using the whip stitch.

Welcome to our new 7th grade Social Studies teacher, Miss Long!
“This is my first year teaching, but I am familiar with Marion because I student taught at the high school and was a substitute at Vernon last year. I grew up in Marion and graduated from Iowa State with a degree in history and political science. Some of my favorite things to do outside of school are play volleyball, play the guitar, and travel. One fun fact about me is that I did part of my student teaching in Germany! I’m so very excited to be a part of the Marion district again and I can’t wait to meet all of my students!”
Welcome to VMS, Miss Long!
