High School Students Paint Mural at Ray Gyllstrom Park

Over Memorial Day weekend, members of the Marcellus High School class of 2026, Cat Shelton and Amanda Kuiper, along with their families, and their advisor, Melody Schneider, painted a mural on the cement under the pavilion at Ray Gyllstrom Park. The mural features a painted turtle swimming in water surrounded by lily pads and is part of a larger project for the recently graduated senior class; they have been attempting to revitalize the Ray Gyllstrom Park for the next generation of children. Thank you seniors for contributing to the community!

Quiz Bowl Students Compete in State Championship

This year, Marcellus High School was invited to participate in the Class C/D State Championships for the first time in many years. Team captain, Leyton T. was supported by fellow senior, Cole M., and juniors, Hunter C. and Olivia P., as they competed at Michigan State University on Saturday against fellow academically-gifted students. It was an exciting new experience for the students, and inspired in the younger students a desire to work hard next year to earn an invitation again. Congratulations on all your hard work, Team!
