Wow! Feeling the love from our JM alumni! Thank you to the Class of 2013 for collecting items at your 10 year reunion!


Are you digging through closets preparing for back to school? If so, we'd LOVE to have your gently used JM spirit wear, backpacks, jogger pants/leggings, athletic shorts, hoodies and football/soccer shoes. Please bring all clean items to the Main Entrance at JM during school hours or with your student. Due to limited space, please only bring items listed above and if in very good condition & teen styles. Yellow collection bins are at the Main Entrance. These items will help supply our Rocket Community Room. THANK YOU!


We can't wait to display the graphic work award winning designer, Lee Green of Greenhouse Graphix, created over the summer. More to come!


A HUGE thank you to the Class of 2003 for raising and donating $500 in gift cards for the Rocket Community Room at their 20 year reunion celebration!




Our English teachers had a little fun naming their new book carts. Vote for your favorite name!

The Rocket Community Room is a space in John Marshall that is open to all students. It is a space that supports students & families with basic need items, such as shelf-stable food, hygiene, school supplies and clothing. This space is completely funded through donations and we need your help restocking our shelves for the 2023-2024 school year. Please view the SignUpGenius link to see top needed items for starting the year - THANK YOU in advance!
