School News

Marshall Lane Elementary is bringing families together in a new and exciting way with our weekly Positivity Potlucks. Every Friday morning, parents gather in the staff lounge for a casual, potluck-style breakfast, providing a unique opportunity to build connections and foster a positive school community.

The event, which takes place each week by grade level, allows parents to meet and chat with each other in a relaxed, informal setting while sharing yummy treats. The goal of the Positivity Potlucks is to promote collaboration and strengthen relationships between families.

As the school year progresses, we look forward to continuing these weekly potlucks and expanding the sense of unity within the school community.

Staying focused in class is tough on an empty stomach. That's why ensuring your child is well-nourished is a top priority at Marshall Lane. Thanks to the Universal Free Meals program, all students receive meals at no cost, helping them stay energized and ready to learn throughout the day.

To help families plan ahead, here is how it works at Marshall Lane.

Monthly Menus

Parents can easily access the school’s monthly meal menus on our school’s home page, making it simple to plan ahead and keep track of what’s being served.

Meal Applications Matter

Filling out a school meals application isn’t just about ensuring your child gets nutritious meals—it also benefits the entire school community. For every student who applies and qualifies for free or reduced-price meals, the school receives over $1,000 in grant funding. These funds are used for crucial resources like student technology, after-school programs, counseling services, and kitchen equipment. Additionally, qualifying families may be eligible for free or discounted internet services and summer camp opportunities
