"My name is Miss Sarah. I'm the food service director and sports photographer, as well as a MA parent! This is my 6th school year working at MA and my daughter is going into 1st grade this year! During my time here, I've also coached MS volleyball, done maintenance and been a part of the S.O.S program. My favorite part about Marshall Academy is the sense of community! It's a real family feel. I know each student by name, I can even tell you their favorite foods. My daughter knows all the staff members, trusts them and feels safe. I look forward to going to work each day, being able to provide the kids with a new and improved menu that they help pick out, and being part of each of their journeys! I love that MA is small, which gives me the ability to form relationships with the children Prek- 12! We encourage students to try new things, we hear about how their mom makes this meal the best, we have fun! Every staff member at the academy has such an important role in each child's life, and I'm so grateful that I can be a part of that!"~Miss Sarah, Food Service Director and MA parent

"I love Marshall Academy! My kids are in 2nd and 4th grade and both read multiple levels above grade level and are similarly advanced in math. I credit this to the phonics program and excellent foundation Marshall Academy has in kindergarten. Also, small class sizes, one of my kids has only 16 or 17 kids in their class. "
~Mrs. Stutesman, parent

"I love being part of the Marshall Academy family because of how interconnected we are. Perhaps it is because I am a specials teacher and work with every age group, but it seems like our school make a conscious effort to connect students and staff across every grade and subject. We have assemblies and spirit weeks on occasion to unite the school in common activities as well as have weekly meetings for elementary, middle, and high school for the respective teachers to discuss general and specific needs of the school and students. I feel like I have a solid idea of who every student and staff member is because we are a small community that provides so many opportunities for everyone to connect with others!"

-Mr. Nelson Music/Band Teacher

As we start preparing for a brand-new school year we created a MA classroom wish list. We know it is a little too early to think about school supplies, BUT you may run into some good back to school deals this summer.
If you would like to support our MA classroom wish list, we would be so grateful!
Every donation—big or small—makes a huge difference.
Thank you for being part of our MA family! We look forward to a great upcoming school year! 💙💛🍎
