Max's Message from the Best Little
School on the Yukon

Hello everyone.

Friday (10/17/97) will be the end of the 1st quarter of school. What that means is that one fourth of the 1997-98 school year is history. Each one of us has determined whether we've made progress or not during that time by what we've accomplished. Hopefully we were successful.

The school began in August on a positive note and has continued that way during the entire quarter. The staff at Marshall is prepared to do all that is necessary to make a difference in the lives of the students at Marshall and that their future is full of success.

Every student, whether in Kindergarten or high school, knows in their own way that their future success in life greatly depends upon their success in school. As teachers, we realize that every child is depending on us to care enough that they have an opportunity to learn and grow. Students also desire and appreciate firm guidance and a caring attitude.

Parents and grandparents are bringing their children to school full of hope for future success, and entrusting the teachers and staff with their most prized possession, their children. They depend on us to love, protect, and teach their children. This shows a lot of faith and trust.

But to properly teach and prepare the youth for tomorrow it takes us all. You have heard the saying that "it takes an entire village to raise a child." This is so true no matter where you live. We all depend on each other whether it be for survival or education.

Marshall is a unique village, as the parents and community are behind the school 100%. I'm thankful to the village of Marshall and for their willingness to face the challenges ahead of them as they are committed to the task of making a positive difference in the lives of their children. I know we as educators are, and that is why we stress attendance at school every day.

We, as a team of parent and community members, have an amazing influence on the attitudes, productivity and the future success of the students of Marshall. Let's continue to be an active part of the team, as we all do make a difference. Step forward and participate as a parent, as a teacher and as a leader. Our students need your help. Whatever your role, it is an important one. The students of today are our leaders of tomorrow.

 

Have a Happy Halloween!
