Marked Tree School District

We will be back in session tomorrow! Please be mindful that while main roads are clear, there may still be some areas that refreeze overnight. Take it slow, especially at intersections and shaded spots. Buses will run their normal routes but will be using extra caution. Please be patient if they are a few minutes behind schedule. Elementary drop-off will be at the entrance to the bus loop on 6th Street. MTPD will be on-site to help remind everyone to slow down and ensure safety. Also, don’t forget that baseball, softball, and tee ball registration will be Saturday morning from 8:00-10:00 AM in the gym on the elementary campus. See everyone in the morning! Stay safe and warm!

Due to hazardous roadways from the snow and ice, Marked Tree School District will be closed on Thursday, February 20, 2025. The warming center at the school will remain open until 6:00 PM for those in need of a safe and warm space. If not in use at 6:00, it will be closed until tomorrow morning at 8:00 a.m. The Sr. High Basketball District Tournament has been pushed back.

 The school will be open as a warming station tonight until 6:00 PM. If not in use at that time, we will close until tomorrow at 8:00 AM.
 Stay safe, stay warm, and we’ll provide further updates as needed.

Due to inclement weather, school will dismiss two hours early today to ensure a safe arrival home for all students, teachers, and bus drivers. According to radar, the winter storm is expected to move into our area between 3:00 and 4:00 PM, so we need to allow extra time for everyone to get home safely!
