Walk-a-Thon

The Walk-A-Thon is an all-student facilitated fundraiser for the school. Participating students are responsible for collecting pledges from the community. Each student walks a certain mileage with her class based on the amount of money their class collected, on the day of Walk-A-Thon. The winner gets to pick color and field day theme first, in order of placement in the Walk-A-Thon.

Surprise Day

Surprise Day is an event planned each year by the Student Board, usually occurring during the second semester. It involves a half day of games and entertainment instead of scheduled classes.

Light Night

At this event, mothers and daughters have their photo taken together, enjoy a dessert and coffee social and candlelight reflection, all before the night's entertainment.

gnimocemoH

gnimocemoH, which is "homecoming" spelled backwards, is Marian's approach to homecoming. Instead of a football game, Marian hosts a spirited faculty-versus-student volleyball game. Later that evening, students attend an informal dance where they don wacky attire and crown the neeuQ (Queen), usually known as Marian's most spirited student.

Field Day

Field Day is held on the last Friday in April and is Marian's largest event of the year. Students spend the week leading up to Field Day making costumes, decorating halls, building mascots, learning songs, and perfecting routines, all in anticipation of winning the coveted Field Day trophy.
