Parents, Just a reminder.... Tomorrow, we will have a lockdown drill. Law enforcement will be on both campuses. We will notify you via text and social media when we begin.

MTSD has created an online reporting system for students and parents to make the district aware of potential issues. This can be found on the homepage of our website at www.markedtreeschools.com. Scroll down underneath the pictures and you will see several buttons...one of which will say "Online Bullying/Harassment Form." No issue is too small. We want students to know they can report to us if they are experiencing issues and to let the school know if there is anything amiss that should be investigated. While the purpose is to encourage the use of this system when bullying or cyberbullying is involved, we welcome students or parents to keep the district informed whenever they notice, witness, or otherwise become aware of: Abuse at home (or elsewhere) Concerns about a fellow student (self-harm, suicidal ideation, etc.) Potential Fights Discrimination Sexual Harassment General threats to campus safety or the campus environment While this isn't anonymous, it provides students and parents a way to report concerns about the above mentioned items without someone seeing a student sharing with a teacher or an administrator. We also recognize that it is difficult for parents who work to communicate concerns about safety with school officials. This form will be checked by building administration each weekday while school is in session. If there is an emergency situation, please contact 911 or law enforcement.
