W ELCOM E BACK! Welcome back to school! We are incredibly excited to have our schools filled with students and staff and are looking forward to the 2019 - 2020 school year. The summer was full of learning through summer school for students. 1,000 students enriched their learning with the support of teachers, para educators, office assistants, food service, and transportation staff in the summer success programs, visiting school libraries and Reading on the Road at Jennings Park. 100's of teachers participated in professional development training to build upon their skills and teaching practices. In addition to extended learning for students and staff, our maintenance and custodial crews worked on more than 20 facility improvement projects, refinished gym floors, stripped and cleaned common areas inside and outside of schools and more to prepare for the return of students and staff. Check out their progress at www.msd25.org/Facility Improvement Summer Projects, or on Facebook @MarysvilleSD.
