Good evening Glenn Marlow families!

It sure was great to see our Buckaroos back in the building today! I hope all of you had an awesome Spring Break last week. We heard lots of great stories of travels and adventures, and everyone was excited to be back in the building today to start the final stretch of the 2022 -2023 school year.

With Mustang Pride,

John Hart

In this week’s Marlow Monday Message:

  • Attendance Matters!
  • Marlow Mustang Derby is coming!
  • Spring Pictures
  • Marlow Kindergarten Readiness RoundUp!
  • WHHS Cheerleaders “Egg My Yard” Fundraiser
  • What’s Happening the rest of March and into April?

Attendance and Communication Matters

We want to continue to stress to all families the importance of student attendance, especially during this time of year. Students continue to learn new content on a daily basis, and teachers continue to prepare them for end-of-year assessments.

If you child needs to be out, please be sure that you are communicating with their teacher and providing notes whenever possible. Obviously, if your child is sick, please do not send them to school. However, we do ask that you be mindful in scheduling appointments and trips that may affect their school day.

If you have any questions about your child’s attendance, or need any clarification on our attendance policy, please contact Mr. Hart here at school at 828-654-3225, or send an email at jehart@hcpsnc.org.

In advance, thank you for your continued support of your children, and their success here at school.

Marlow Mustang Derby is Coming!

Yes, that’s right! The 2023 Marlow Mustang Derby is coming Thursday, April 6th, and that means that is time to start thinking about getting registered and getting those donations in!

Our goal this year is $40,000, and money raised will go towards updating technology in our classrooms with ClearTouch TVs.

Flyers and kits will be coming home this Friday, so be on the lookout!

Spring Pictures

Don’t forget about Spring Pictures coming up next Tuesday, March 28th. Order forms are being sent home this week, so order your pictures today! Class pictures will be taken as well.

Please note that picture orders for class portraits and individual portraits are sold separately, so each separate order must have its own individual payment.

Remember that a portion of all picture sales comes back to Glenn Marlow, so order your Spring Pictures today!

Marlow Kindergarten Readiness Round-Up

Attention Incoming Kindergarten Families! Have you registered for Kindergarten yet?

We will be hosting a “Mustang Readiness Roundup” for all incoming Kindergarten families on Tuesday, April 4th, from 5:30 – 6:30 pm.

At this event, parents and students can come and see the school, ask questions, meet teachers and administrators, and learn about Kindergarten readiness skills that you can practice at home to get ready for the 2023 – 2024 school year. This is a “drop-in” event, so come anytime between 5:30 – 6:30. Hope to see you there!
