We are excited to announce that Marinette School District will be holding Summer Learning as planned, however, we will be doing so with several safety precautions to keep your child safe and healthy. Students will remain in the same classroom, with the same teacher, for the duration of the summer learning day. Students will have Art, Music, and PE in the classroom or outside. Teachers will be teaching academics, however the primary focus will be on social emotional skills and just plain having FUN! Because we cannot have the enrichment classes that we would typically have during summer learning, the teachers are prepared to bring the enrichment activities to their classroom for an engaging experience for their students.
General Summer Learning Information:
- Dates: June 14th through July 9th from 8:00am-12:30pm
- Available for students going into Grades 5K through 8
- Summer Learning will be held at Marinette High School
- Registration will open February 22nd
Safety Measures:
**These safety measures will still be in place like the normal school year unless the CDC and DHS guidelines change prior to the start of summer learning.
- Facial Covering
- Students will be required to wear facial coverings at all times.
- Exception: While outdoors during recess, and during mealtimes.
- Classroom setup
- Students will have assigned seats that maintain physical distancing.
- Recess
- Students will be allowed to have recess, however they will be going outside with their own classroom while maintaining physical distancing.
- Students will sanitize their hands prior to going outside and upon entering the building.

Message From the Principal
With March come some new changes that we are excited about and look forward to - having most of our students together here in the building! While this has always been our goal since the start of the 2020-21 school year, we thought going back to in-person learning would have happened sooner. With the health and well-being of our students and staff being our number one priority, keeping an eye on our district and local community COVID data on a weekly basis kept us out longer than anticipated. But after careful consideration of the recent data, research, and local health official opinions, we are transitioning back on March 1st to in-person learning four days a week, keeping Wednesday a student support day. Please see your email or our webpage for more detailed information included in our MHS Back to In-Person Parent Letter.
We also have a couple of very important dates in March that involve state assessments and parent-teacher conferences. On Tuesday, March 9th, ALL Wisconsin high school 11th grade students will take the ACT with writing®. The ACT is an in-person assessment that districts administer on paper and cannot be done remotely (virtual testing options are not available for statewide assessments). We will need ALL of our juniors to attend school on this day and will be taking every precaution to ensure a safe testing environment. Please refer to the email you should have received on February 18th from our counselor, Ms. Hetzel, for all important details.
On this same day, Tuesday, March 9th, ALL seniors will also take a state assessment called the Civics Exam. Wisconsin statute requires that any students graduating from a Wisconsin high school "takes a civics test comprised of 100 questions that are identical to the 100 questions that may be asked of an individual during the process of applying for U.S. citizenship by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services and the pupil correctly answers at least 65 of those questions. Seniors need to report to school no later than 1:20 pm and may leave when they are finished. We have provided them with links to the exam questions and flash cards they can use to study from.
And lastly, we will hold parent-teacher conferences on Wednesday, March 24th, from 3:30-6:30 pm. In lieu of in-person parent-teacher conferences, MHS staff will be offering two options as we did in the fall for parents/guardians to be in contact with our teachers - phone conferences or scheduled Google Meets. Look for more information to come before spring break.
Thanks for continuing to partner with us in your child’s education!

Message From the Athletic Director:
The 2020-21 Winter Athletic Season wrapped up in February. Highlights included the Boys Basketball team hosting and defeating the Antigo Red Robins in WIAA Regional action, the Wrestling team advancing FIVE wrestlers to the WIAA Sectional meet and the Girls Basketball team defeating Little Chute at home during the last week of their regular season! Way to finish the season strong Marines!
Due to scheduling changes by the WIAA due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Marine athletes have an extended break before the start of Spring Sports in mid-April. Because of this, this month we want to recognize the numerous Marine alumni currently participating in the NCAA Spring season. We wish them all good luck and are proud of all of our alumni athletes!
