Markham Families -- Next week, we will be celebrating Read Across America Week with themed dress up days and various activities - both schoolwide and within classrooms. Note that on Thursday, March 6th we will be having a schoolwide "Drop Everything and Read" extended homeroom in the AM. Have a great weekend!


Good afternoon Markham families,
This afternoon, we conducted our February security drill at Markham Place School. This drill was a tabletop planning drill conducted with the Little Silver Police Department, and as such did not interrupt instruction or the operations of the school.
Respectfully,
Mr. Pepe
