Don't forget: Tomorrow (July 17) is our weekly bulk meal distribution from 2:30-5:30 on our main campus. Please enter by Glasscock Elementary and follow the traffic map provided. We may need to alter the route based on the number of vehicles on campus.
From MCPS Director of Bands Adam McRay:
Students entering grades 7 - 12 enrolled in band or interested in color guard are invited to come to a non-commitment trial day of band camp on Monday, July 15 from 8am to 5pm at Marion High School to see if they are interested in joining the marching band program. Students attending should bring a lunch or have lunch brought to them at 11:30 (lunch will not be provided). Students should dress school appropriately for the heat, wear tennis shoes, bring a refillable water bottle, and their instrument equipment. The band room doors will be open by 7:30. Students can be dropped off behind the high school and come into the band room. Students should be picked up at 5pm in the same location. If you have any questions, please contact Adam McRay by email at adam.mcray@marion.kyschools.us.
Our weekly meal distribution resumes tomorrow, Wednesday, July 10 from 2:30 pm - 5:30 pm. Please enter campus at Glasscock Elementary. We may need to adjust the route through campus depending on the number of vehicles. Meal bundles are available for all children ages 1 - 18.
If you have a student in grades 6-12 interested in joining the MCPS band program, make sure you attend an informational meeting for parents and students Monday, July 8 at 6:00 pm at Marion County High School.
This meeting is for both returning band members and those who think they might be interested in joining.

Our next bulk meal distribution for children ages 1 - 18 is Wednesday, June 19 from 2:30-5:30 at Marion County Knight Academy. We've made a few adjustments from last week which we hope provides a better experience for those picking up meals. First the pick-up route will now begin at Glasscock Elementary -- please follow the route on our updated map. Also, you will not need to provide demographic information when picking up meals. At the distribution site, we intend to have two pick-up spots available to speed up the process.
Finally, please be aware that there will be work occurring on campus involving large dump trucks delivering loads of dirt for a future project. This should not interfere with the meal distribution, but we want families be aware of this prior to Wednesday.
