Check out the School Counselor Tip of the Week!

Here is the school counselor’s RESPONSIBILITY tip of the week! If you're expected to do something, follow through and get it done on time. Set yourself up for success by using Hawk Time to look at your assignment notebook or calendar, and make a plan for the evening. Make sure you have all needed homework materials in your backpack, and that you understand your teacher's expectations. Try not to be the person who emails at 9:00 pm with, “Wait… what am I supposed to do?”

When you actually do what you say you're going to, people know they can count on you, you are dependable, and they can TRUST you!

MMS Hawk Pulse

12 days ago, Brett Walker

We know the beginning of a new school year can bring a lot of mixed feelings. There is excitement about a fresh start, but there can also be some nervousness, exhaustion, and a whole lot of adjusting for both kids and parents. As we settle into the new school year, we want to remind you that it takes time to find a rhythm. You don't have to have everything figured out in the first few weeks. We're here to support you and your children along the way, and we're so grateful to be part of your family's learning journey.

If you want more support never hesitate to reach out the the main office or your child's Advisory teacher.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We’re thrilled to announce that late bus service is officially returning on Tuesday, September 8! 🎉 The late bus will depart from Marshwood Middle School between 4:00 PM and 4:30 PM, so mark your calendars!

Heads-up: The sign-up process has changed! Students will now fill out a form on the day they stay after school to confirm their bus and stop. Teachers and coaches will be there to lend a hand, so make sure your child knows their assigned stop. 😊

Note for Rollinsford families: Children from Rollinsford will take the South Berwick late bus and will be dropped off at the Legion stop.

Let’s make this a smooth and stress-free start to late bus service! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the school office.

Thanks for your support!

Best,
Marshwood Middle School

Support the 8th Grade Class!

Our Grade Six Chorus truly made MMS shine! Forty talented singers had the incredible honor of opening the day at the Maine House of Representatives with a beautiful performance of the National Anthem. From there, they traveled to the Senate and then to the Hall of Flags, where they enjoyed a brief conversation and a second powerful performance of the Anthem for Governor Janet Mills.

This unforgettable experience was made possible through the support of Michele Meyer, Marianne Moore, and our dedicated MMS staff and administration.

Thank you to everyone who helped create this special opportunity—and congratulations to our chorus members for representing MMS with such pride and excellence!
