Dear Merrill Families,
Welcome Back to the 2021-2022 School Year! We are excited to partner with you this school year to make your child’s experience at Merrill a success.
This school year will bring a lot of new and exciting things as we partner with you, our families, to help your students learn and grow. Please note the start and end times for school this year have changed as well as our special schedule on Wednesday. Students will be dismissed each Wednesday for teacher planning and preparation to support Merrill students’ instructional needs.
Regular School Day: 7:30 AM - 3:00 PM
Early Release Wednesday: 7:30 AM - 1:30 PM
Merrill’s Tiger Expectations (S.W.A.G.)
Safety First, Work Together Respectfully, Accept Responsibility, and Guide Me
This upcoming school year we will continue to focus on high academic expectations for ALL students, having a growth mindset, and encouraging reading at home. We have maintained and increased our staff to help us reach our goals.
Stephanie Ford, Literacy Coach
Perleana Douglas, Science, Technology, Engineering, Math Coach
Alicia Wash, Literacy and Math Intervention

We look forward to seeing all families again at Back to School Night on August 30th from 4:00-5:30 pm. During this time, families will be able to meet their child’s teacher, drop off school supplies.
We look forward to working with you this school year to help your children learn and grow!
