Our Competition Cheer took home first in State this past Saturday! The team competed against 13 other 3A teams and took first place beating the second place team by 6 points! If you are unfamiliar with cheer scoring-6 points is HUGE. Our final score was 91.4 out of 100 which is a new personal best for our program! This makes the Marion Cheer Squad back to back state champs! #MISDOwnYourFuture #MISDinspire

Also, the girls were one of the few teams that sat together for the entire competition, cheering on all the competitors throughout the day, truly representing the Marion Way from start to finish.

Happy Halloween from all of us at Longfellow!



As most of MISD is celebrating Halloween, the Spanish classes are celebrating Day of the Dead. We have our altar, delicious food, decorations and Catrinas, and we’re making mariposas 🦋to honor our lost loved ones. It is a wonderful celebration!
