Greetings Primary Families,

March is here and Marinette Primary School has many great activities planned for this month. We are hosting a 4K/5K Preview Night on March 2nd from 5:00-6:30 p.m. Spring Break will be held from March 13th - March 17th. In addition, students are looking forward to our next all school reward at the end of the month. They will be going bowling at the Dome Lanes.

For safety reasons, please slow down and pay close attention when dropping off students at school. Students should be dropped off on the sidewalk side of the street only!

Thank you and have a great month!

Character Trait of the Month

The character trait for the month of March is GRIT. Grit is being able to keep working toward a goal and overcoming obstacles, even when it's hard. Examples of grit are everywhere, because instant success is pretty rare. Grit is a part of everyday life and growth. For example: You set a goal to learn all your multiplication tables and had to study hard for a month to learn them.

PBIS

Marinette Primary School is a PBIS school. What is PBIS? Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports is an evidence-based tiered framework for supporting students behavioral, academic, social, emotional, and mental health. It promotes safety as well as good behaviors.
