2 HOURS OF POWER VOLUNTEER CHALLENGE
THANKS SO MUCH We appreciate all who have stepped up to bring beloved events back to Morse this spring semester. Mother/Son, Daddy/Daughter, Trivia Night, and Carnival committees are all up and running. Do you want to help with one of these spring events? Sign up here or email us. We need Marksman Mascot for Feb28! Students and caregivers alike have enjoyed the school spirit of our Marksman mascot on Monday mornings. We currently have no one signed up for Monday, February 28th. It takes 15 minutes but gives students and staff smiles all day! Visit the Sign Up Genius today to sign up for your Monday. |
