Marietta Elementary School

Marietta City Schools will be closed Tuesday, December 2, 2025 due to hazardous road conditions. Enjoy the snow day Tigers and stay safe!

Marietta City School District is currently operating under a 2-hour delay for Tuesday December 2, 2025. We will continue to monitor the weather throughout the morning and make updates if necessary. Thank you!

We are sad to announce that this month's Coffee and Conversation is canceled. Superintendent Schaeffer would like to apologize for missing you this month, but she will be back Jeremiah's Coffee House next month. We thank you for your understanding in this matter, and we hope to see you in December!

Tomorrow, November 18, at 9 a.m. in the MES Cafeteria we will be holding our second Coffee with Care of the year. This is a wonderful opportunity for parents to gather for refreshments, conversation and resources to help make the year go smoother for their students.

Tomorrows topic will be "Big Emotions/Anger Management" so if you are looking for help in navigating your student through those powerful emotional outbursts, we hope you will join us!

Our food service provider AVI would like our students feedback regarding how they can improve prior to November 14. We are talking to them at school and during lunch about this survey, but if you could also ask your child to consider taking this it will only benefit their future at MCSD. Thank you!

☕ Coffee & Conversation — Round Two!

Dr. Schaeffer is excited to invite everyone to our second Coffee & Conversation happening this Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at Stoked from 9:00–10:30 a.m.

Come enjoy a cup of coffee while supporting a great local business and taking the opportunity to share your questions, praises, concerns, and ideas directly with our district’s Superintendent.

We hope to see you there!
