The Fundraiser

At John Marshall Middle School we are having a fundraiser. In order to raise money for different projects at school, we are selling tickets from Rusty Eck Ford. Each ticket costs ten dollars and enters the ticket holder in a drawing to win a new vehicle valued at $25,000.
If students sell two tickets they get a bag of Hot Cheetos; and if they sell five tickets they get a one dollar ticket for an ala carte item and entered into a drawing for an IPod nano! Also, If a student sells ten tickets they get a limo cruise with Mr.Bustos & Mr.Jolliffe. The top five sellers get a fifty dollar gift card to Wal-Mart and the top seller gets one hundred dollar gift card to Wal-Mart.. Our goal is to raise $20,000. With the $20,000 the school plans to get TV's for the cafeteria and the library.
They are also planning on purchasing student incentives, buying student clothing (uniform), Improving the building and equipment for the playground like more benches, and acquiring new technology for the classrooms.

Exploring the Solar System

by J.E., 7th Grade

In seventh grade science, we are making pyramids of each planet and hanging them on the ceiling, making the room colorful! On the pyramids are the planet's name, what it's made of, and what the diameter and circumference are. We also have 60 second science and what that is we watch videos that are 60 seconds or less. All the videos are about science; mostly about the lesson we are in.

Saturday was national Make A Difference Day.  84 students from Communities In Schools and over 100 from the Wichita Promise Youth Council partnered to assist some senior citizens in our community.  Marshall and North High students came together to help out in our own neighborhood.

We had a great time, worked hard, and played a lot.
