***MHS ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT***
Our first Alumni Spotlight is Brett Clause, current Marshall High School librarian, who is a 2010 graduate of MHS. His favorite memories from his time at MHS were working at Dairy Queen and hanging out with his friends on the weekends. Working at Dairy Queen in high school allowed him to “ talk and hang out with kids I would have never interacted with if we hadn’t been coworkers.” When in school, his favorite teachers were Mr. Brennen, who taught history, and Mr. Fawkes, who taught video production, “they were very knowledgeable in their subjects, entertaining, and incorporated a lot of humor into their lessons.” He was inspired by his fellow peers who seemed to excel in school, sports, or socializing because he, “ felt awkward while I was in school, so I admired those who appeared confident and popular.”
At MHS, Clause planned on becoming a teacher and was president of the Future Teachers of America; he felt that his teachers prepared him well for his future, even if he didn’t take it as seriously as he should have. Besides the MHS alums he works with, Clause shared that he only regularly talks to 3-5 people from high school. He would tell the current students, “I spent a lot of time worrying about and valuing people's opinions that I shouldn’t have. I would advise students to stand up for themselves and not feel like their interests, personality, or goals are weird. Prioritize exploring the world and finding ideas and groups of people who value the same things as you. Life becomes much more worthwhile when you are true to yourself, even when it may feel impossible.”
No school on Thursday, February 20, 2025. Stay warm Owls!

Due to still dangerous conditions, low temperatures, slippery parking lots, having to haul snow that has nowhere else to go, too cold for salt to be effective, Benton is too cold, and gravel roads are still too dangerous. There will be no classes for students this Friday, January 10.
Tomorrow’s district professional development day will be rescheduled for Friday at their respective school buildings.”
Debido a: condiciones aún peligrosas, temperaturas peligrosas, estacionamientos resbaladizos, tener que transportar nieve que no tiene otro lugar adonde ir, demasiado frío para que la sal sea efectiva, Benton es demasiado frío y los caminos de grava siguen siendo demasiado peligrosos. No habrá clases para los estudiantes este viernes 10 de enero.
El día de desarrollo profesional del distrito de mañana (PDD) se reprogramará para el viernes en sus edificios escolares respectivos.”
***AMI Day 1 & 2***
Wednesday, January 8th and Thursday, January 9th there will be no school for students in Marshall. These two days will be AMI day 1 and 2. Temperatures alone are enough for concern and clean up is very slow with these temperatures and lack of thawing. Stay safe and warm Owls!
