Bulletin for the week of 10/13/25

Joke of the week: What room do skeletons stay out of? Living rooms.
 

Leadership Quote of the week: 

Gator’s here’s something to think about this week:
"The Journey of a thousand miles begins with one step" -Lao Tyi
No matter what goal you’re working toward — improving your grades, making new friends, joining a club, or trying something new — it all starts with taking that first step. Don’t worry about how far you have to go; just start moving forward, one step at a time. 
Every great journey begins with courage, effort, and a single choice to begin. Let’s make this week the start of something great! 
 

Weekly Behavior Challenge:

Throughout the month of October, we’ll be holding Weekly Behavior Challenges! These challenges are designed to help everyone stay focused on The Gator Way and give you extra opportunities to earn Gator Green!
 
๐ŸŸข This week’s challenge: Keeping Marsh Clean.  Here is the video
Gators, let’s show our pride by keeping our campus clean! Every day, our custodians and supervisors work hard to make Marsh look amazing — let’s help them out by throwing away our trash, keeping our tables clean, and using restrooms responsibly.
If you see trash on the ground, pick it up — even if it’s not yours! And if you notice someone not taking care of our school, let an adult know. Together, we can make Marsh the cleanest, nicest campus ever!
You might even get caught helping and earn some extra Gator Green! ๐Ÿ’š
 

Marsh Fundraiser

If you have any sales from our marsh fundraiser, please bring your forms and money on October 14th in front of the office. If you only did online sales, you are all set. If you have a completed sales form, don’t forget to bring it on Tuesday with the money for all orders.

Gentlemen's Leadership Council: Workshop

The Gentlemen's Leadership Council is putting on the first workshop of the year. This first workshop is going to be to learn how to tie a tie. Learning to tie a tie is an essential skill for many occasions and sometimes there isn’t the opportunity to learn this skill, so we are going to teach it! The schoolwide workshop is going to be on October 15th during both lunches in the library. Join us to learn how to tie a tie or teach others if you already know how! 
 

Wellness Center Now Open!
Great news, Gators — Marsh has just opened our very first Wellness Center!

The Wellness Center is a calm, quiet space where you can go if you need a break, want to reset, or just take a moment to breathe during the school day. You’ll find it in Room C10 in the C-wing. Inside, there are lots of calming tools and activities to help you regulate and feel your best.
How can you use the wellness center?
Just check in with your teacher or a staff member first to get a pass. Then come on over during our open hours. We are open: Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings (Periods 1st-3rd) and Tuesday and Friday afternoons (Periods 4th–6th). Hours are also posted at the door. 
This space is created for everyone — so please use it whenever you need it!
 

๐ŸŽ‰ Congratulations to Our Honor Roll Students! ๐ŸŽ‰
