Dear Merrill Community School District Families,
There are many updates in this weekly word from the community and throughout the District.
The Marion Springs Conservations Club will have a large outdoor market for you to enjoy this
weekend. Please spread the word that our military appreciation home football game is on
October 15th. We would love to have as many of our community's active military or veterans
come to enjoy a meal with a hot dog, chips, cookies and drink, as well as get recognized on
the field. We are thankful for their service and want to take this chance to show it. Details
are below. Our Merrill Community Spirit Committee is also looking for applicants to
participate in their annual fundraiser event to benefit their organization. See these and
other event details included below.
There is no school on Monday for students. Our teaching staff will be participating in a
county-wide professional development day. The Saginaw ISD has planned an engaging day
of learning for educators in Saginaw County to participate in.
