Earlier this week, our Teacher Leaders had great learning and collaborating in preparation for the new school year that started today! #MISDinspire #MISDOwnYourFuture


Make consistent attendance a priority this school year! 🎒
Research shows that students who attend school daily achieve at higher levels than students who are frequently absent. Chronic absenteeism is linked to lower reading and math scores and a higher risk of dropping out of high school.
If you’re feeling well, you should be in school. Let’s work together to make the most of this school year! #MISDinspire #MISDOwnYourFuture

✨ We welcome Nicole Green as a 3rd Grade Teacher at FMI!
Nicole lives in Marion with her husband, and they have three sons. This will be her first year teaching, but she has been in education for over 25 years, first as an occupational therapy assistant and then as a paraeducator.
Nicole says, "I have always appreciated and admired MISD’s ability to equip learners with what is important and necessary to be prepared for their future without sacrificing the importance of community and caring in the process."
We are thrilled to have you!
