🎅 Santa’s Secret Shop is Coming to Marshall Academy! 🎁

Mark your calendars! Santa’s Secret Shop will be open December 1st–4th from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. each day.

Our MAPA group is thrilled to host this beloved annual tradition, where students can experience the joy of secretly picking out thoughtful, inexpensive gifts for their loved ones—all on their own!

The shop will feature a wide variety of kid-friendly gifts, with most items priced under $5. It’s a wonderful opportunity for students to practice budgeting skills, enjoy the spirit of giving, and create lasting holiday memories.

Please keep an eye out for a budget envelope/form that will be sent home soon to help your child plan their shopping.

For more information, contact Marshall Academy at 📞 (269) 781-6330.

✨ Happy Holidays from the MAPA team! ✨
