School Closure Information
If we are ever forced to cancel school due to severe weather we will do our best to notify you as soon as possible.  We will notify you via the news stations and radio as well as a phone call, text message, email and the Purcell Marian website at www.purcellmarian.org. If you are not notified in one of the methods mentioned, then school has not been cancelled.

Grades & Progress Reports 
Remember you can view your child's schedule or grades at any time b
y going to www.purcellmarian.org, click on Current Families, then Parentsweb Login. When logging into the parent portal, remember the district code is PM-OH, click student information, then grades. If you have any questions about logging onto ParentsWeb, email Mark Majick at [email protected] .
 
Remember, we have parent-teacher conference on Thursday March 1 from 3:00 pm - 7:00 pm in the open house style format. No appointment necessary.

As you view and reflect on your student's report card, remember that if your child fails a class for a quarter, they still can pass for the year by passing the remaining quarters and doing well on the final exam. Any student who fails a class for the year must attend summer school and earn credit recovery for that class. Purcell Marian will not re-enroll any student who is credit deficient.
