McDonald s North, which is located on the edge of our district, provided free meals as prizes in our fund raiser and has offered further assistance in the future. The staff of Marlin School accepts the leadership for implementing this mission. Communication regarding school developments and initiatives will progress beyond the building and the community of parents to the community at large. Adequate training supports teachers in taking full advantage of the technology currently available in the building, as well as developing a vision of technology education. We offer a continuum of services to reach children whose needs vary from learning disabilities to gifted and talented.
Teachers are facilitators of exploration rather than imparters of knowledge.
Learning how to learn, developing effective research skills, and cultivating a love of learning replace coverage and skill development as our main curricular goals. To help children in our relatively homogeneous community to gain a global perspective, our school in the year 2000 has technological connections with schools throughout the country and the world. Not only does our computer laboratory accommodate an entire class, but each room has two or three computers, one of which is a teaching station. Telephones in every classroom increase our connections to parents and to the community. Further community connections in the year 2000 allow us to take full advantage of the rich resources available in Monroe County.
