Marshall is a school where we expect the best from our students and teachers. We believe in our own abilities and those of your children. Our goal is to prepare our students academically and socially for a bright and promising future. Together the students, teachers, administrators, parents, and community can work to achieve this goal. Please catch our vision and join us in our efforts.

With a goal of increasing parent/community involvement, Marshall excels in this area. Our Jr. Exchange Club collected canned food for the Salvation Army, and recycled phone books for Keep Columbus Beautiful. All academic teams delivered Christmas cards and faculty members made lap covers which were taken to area hospitals and nursing homes. We raised money for and participated in Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society. The Math Department held a successful family math night. The Language Arts Department sponsored a Family Reading Night. The student body collected money for the relief effort in the September 11th tragedy.

The mission of Marshall Middle School is to provide quality education by striving for excellence while creating an environment in which every student has the opportunity to achieve success.
