Full day of school~ Elementary students can wear jeans and a MARSHALL ACADEMY spirit wear shirt to celebrate our wrap up of March Reading Month. Remember to sign your child's reading log and have them turn it in on Wednesday. We get to see Mr. Swan perform a fitness test in front of the students at the reading party! It should be quite funny! (no offense Mr. Swan)
