Parkview Elementary School

Meet our new Parkview secretary, Miss Amber! Amber comes to us from FMI where she worked as an associate. She is also a parent of 3 kids in Marion Independent School District! Welcome, Amber!

At Parkview, we start our day with Soft Start. It is a calm way for students to ease into the school day! For the first 10-15 minutes of the day students can draw, color, connect with friends and teachers, do puzzles, building, read a book, and more! #parkviewinspire #misdinspire

We had an amazing first day of school at Parkview! #parkviewinspire #misdinspire
