MHS Announcements for week of 10/13/25

So, the stock market had a wild week. Wall Street traders were sweating and hitting the panic button.
And what were the students at Marion High School doing? Buying the dip. 🧠
This week's volatility was a test, and our students passed with flying colors. The leaderboard is now a sea of Marion. We've officially escalated from a simple takeover to a full-blown market monopoly.
Get this: Marion High now holds THIRTEEN of the top twenty spots state-wide. Read that again.
Our #1, Jacob AC, treated the market chaos like a discount sale, rocketing his return to an incredible 28.2% above the S&P 500! 🚀 He's so far ahead, he's practically in a different time zone.
Meanwhile, our AI-powered "CS AGENT" teams navigated the chop like seasoned pros, proving that cold, hard code has no time for fear. The bots are still printing. 🤖💰
Volatility doesn't build character; it reveals it. And it just revealed that the future of finance is sitting in a classroom at Marion High. Stay tuned. This is getting fun.
(Disclaimer: Seriously, don't use this as financial advice. Unless your advice is to be as smart as these kids.)

After just three weeks in the Stock Market Game, our students decided the Top 10 leaderboard looked a little bland. So they took it over.
That's right, we're not just on the list. We ARE the list. Marion High holds SIX of the top eight spots, including #1! 🥇
And get this—some of our top traders, the "CS AGENTS," are using custom built AI agents to refine their strategy. 🤖 While you're still trying to figure out your password, our kids are building Skynet to print (fictional) money. The future is now, and it's coming for your portfolio.
A massive shout-out to Jacob Arnold-Crowe for leading the entire state! He's doing Pre-Algebra with one hand and orchestrating a market coup with the other.
The rest of the schools are playing checkers; Marion is playing 4D chess. Watch out, Wall Street. The interns are coming. 🚀📈
(Disclaimer: This is a school game. All money is fictional. But the bragging rights? 100% real.)

The Marion National Honor Society and Cross Country Team had a blast volunteering at the Ragnar Michigan Road Race! The NHS ensured the first relay hand-off at Exchange 1 in Traverse City went smoothly. The Cross Country Team built the finish line and welcomed the first few relay teams across the finish line in Muskegon. From start to finish, that's OVER 200 MILES OF RUNNING in a day and a half! One of those teams included some familiar faces. They started at 5am on Friday and finished at 5:20pm on Saturday 20 MINUTES AHEAD OF THEIR PROJECTED TIME! The team ran a total of 201.7 miles and averaged a 10:52 minute per mile pace! Great '25 finish to team "In my Ragnar Era!!" Thanks for being such awesome role models.

Marion’s 4th graders visited Gingrich Farms and Rose Lake Campgrounds for Project R.E.D. On the farm students learned about manure, milking, cows and got to witness a live birth of a calf. At the park students traveled station to station learning about forestry, fire and electricity safety, honey bees and casting a fishing poll.









The 7th grade Ancient History Class has been exploring how early peoples communicated. Earlier this year, a cave paintings activity focused on illustrating culturally important parts of their life. Currently they are exploring the Fertile Crescent civilizations. One new cultural aspect which developed in this region is written language. Students wrote a short sentence or two, translated it into Cuneiform (a language where symbols made of wedge shaped patterns represented words and syllables) and then into Phoenician (an early alphabetic language). I am sure no middle school parent is surprised that 6-7 somehow made it into this activity.
