On Monday, November 9th, Jerry Burnell Great Works School will be honoring our veterans and their families at our annual Veterans Day Assembly, from 9:00 am to 10:10 am in the GWS Gymnasium. It is one of our favorite assemblies of the year, and it means so much to so many. We are asking our students and staff to wear red, white, and blue on that day to celebrate. Many activities will take place during our assembly. Our chorus will perform, the 5th grade band will play, students will read essays thanking veterans, and we will hear from some veterans themselves. At the end of the assembly, we will have a wonderful breakfast reception for the veterans and their families in our cafeteria that will end at 11:00 am.
The purpose of this letter is twofold. If your family has a relative or friend who has served in the Armed Forces, we would love for them to attend and be our special guest. Please fill out the information below and return it to your child's teacher by Thursday, November 5th. Also, this event has been growing every year. We would appreciate any help you could provide with donations for our breakfast. You may sign up with our Sign Up Genius link: Veterans Day Breakfast Donation Sign-Up. If you are able to donate food for our breakfast celebration, non-perishable items can be dropped off anytime on Friday, November 6th or the morning of Monday, November 9th. Perishable items will need to be brought to the cafeteria between 7:00 and 8:30 am on Monday, November 9th to be ready for the guests. Thank you for your consideration and help in continuing a beloved JBGWS tradition alive.
We appreciate all your effort with this wonderful event.

Dear Marshwood Families,
We love seeing our students, families, and community come together to support Marshwood High School and Middle School athletics! These events are a great opportunity to show school spirit, cheer on our student-athletes, and have fun together. We need your help and partnership to ensure that our events remain safe, welcoming, and enjoyable for everyone.
Recently, we have experienced some challenging situations at our athletic contests, including injuries and other incidents that have raised concerns about spectator safety and supervision. To help us continue offering positive experiences for our students, families, and fans, we ask that everyone review and follow the expectations below for all athletic events held at Marshwood High School and Marshwood Middle School. Effective Immediately:
Students in Grade 8 and below must attend with a responsible adult who remains in attendance at the event. This may be a parent, guardian, family member, or another authorized adult. A current Marshwood student, including an older sibling, does not qualify as the accompanying adult. We require an adult to be present to supervise and speak on behalf of these students if an injury, incident, or other concern arises. Given the incidents we have experienced, we cannot allow students in Grade 8 and below to attend without an accompanying adult. Admission will not be permitted unless the adult is present and remains at the event.
Students must remain in designated spectator areas where they can watch the game. Loitering is not permitted in areas outside the view of the event, including behind the high school bleachers, in fields beyond fenced-off areas, or in school hallways during indoor games and contests.
Smoking and vaping are prohibited at all times on Marshwood School District grounds and inside all district facilities. This expectation applies to all students, families, and spectators attending our events.
Outside food and beverages may not be brought into event areas.
Thank you for your partnership in helping us provide a safe, positive, and enjoyable environment for our student-athletes, families, and fans. We appreciate your cooperation, understanding, and continued support of Marshwood athletics. By working together, we can ensure that our events remain a fun and welcoming place for our entire community.
Thank you for being part of the Marshwood community! Go Hawks!
Sincerely,
Caroline Arakelian
