Marinette Primary School is a PBIS School

What is PBIS?  PBIS stands for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. It is an evidence-based three-tiered framework to improve and integrate all of the data, systems, and practices affecting student outcomes every day. PBIS creates schools where all students succeed.  Please review the matrix with your child.

Medications

All medications that need to be administered to our students are required to be in the original containers for both prescribed or over the counter medications. A medication form needs to be completed for each medication including cough drops. Medication forms may be found HERE.

Flu Clinic

Flu season is just around the corner.  We will host a flu clinic for the students on October 20th.  Be sure to sign up if you would like your child to receive a free flu shot.  If you have any questions, please contact the office at 715-735-2500.


Flu information

Students are screened up to three times per year to help us identify students who might need additional support in reading or math. Our school district uses Fastbridge for these assessments.
