Folks call Hubbard resident Jan Jurchen both Grandma J and “tough cookie,” and she’s earned both titles.

After her husband died in his 30s, Jurchen stepped up as a single mom and raised their four children, all of whom attended North Marion schools. Despite the ache in her hands, she also regularly crafts hats for children and families in need. Jurchen, who is 82, recently crocheted 400 hats, enough for every student in the North Marion Primary School and Preschool.

On Dec. 9, she distributed her crocheted beauties to the children in the Primary School cafeteria, with teachers ushering in one or two classes at a time. In a way, the giveaway was a relief for her.

“I’m so glad to get these out of my house and on kids’ heads!” she said.

The beauty of these Grandma J originals is their variety, available in pastels, neon shades, and dark hues. Several even incorporated an opening at the top for a ponytail to pop out. The hats were a hit with local students.

“I can’t choose,” second-grader April Campos Gomez said, wonderingly, as her eyes surveyed the many tables. “They’re all so cute.”

Second-grader Malachai Boell also struggled to decide on the right knit cap, but he eventually came to a final selection.

“It feels really comfortable,” Malachai said. “I’m very thankful. I’m very happy.”
Look for a video of the event soon!

Hello NM community!

Did you know that the North Marion All Schools Auction is the single biggest fundraiser for our schools? One hundred percent of the profits from the auction go right back into our district! ALL students, ALL schools, and ALL programs benefit from the funds raised by this annual event!

The North Marion All Schools Auction is a completely volunteer-run organization. It is composed of a seven-member voting board supported by a committee working tirelessly together to ensure the success of our mission. We are SO PROUD of what we have accomplished together.

But … we are tired. Our kids are grown and most of them have graduated. It is time to pass the reins. The entire board is ready to resign. We need YOU! We need a fresh, new board to come take over and make the auction your own. We are ready to help with the transition. We will share what we know, what we have done, and tips and tricks to ensure the successful continuation of this amazing organization.

We need you NOW. We are done. We need folks to step up today or we will be forced to fold the auction and close our accounts. PLEASE! Reach out today! Email us at [email protected].

Thank you so much,

Your North Marion Auction Board members

A Lineman, a Wrestler, and a Queen

North Marion senior Esmerelda Pacheco Contreras had an amazing Fall Term as the only female athlete to letter on the Football Team and one of the few girls to ever join the team. Now, her Winter Term’s already playing out to be just as exciting as she breaks new ground on the Wrestling Team.

This school year, Pacheco Contreras has been involved in three sports, two of which are traditionally played by male athletes, football and wrestling, and she plans to play another sport in the coming year. She’s a student leader on the Associated Student Body (ASB), helping to organize fundraisers and school activities. She’s even been the belle of the ball at a recent dance.

NHS Blood Drive Tradition Returns to North Marion

During the North Marion High School National Honor Society Blood Drive on Nov. 30, 51 people gave blood, each donating a pint to the American Red Cross.

The Blood Drive wouldn’t have been a success without the 19 people who volunteered to make it happen. For their efforts, the NHS members who organized the event will be rewarded with $500 in club funds, a thank-you from the Red Cross. NHS Adviser Patricia McClintock was clear that the main focus of the event was about saving lives, not raising funds, and NHS members, many of whom participate in multiple student service clubs, understood that.

“As clubs, we try our best to give back to the community that supports us,” said Yadira Romero Navarro, NHS member, ASB President, MEChA President, Key Club Vice President, Yearbook Lead Editor, and FBLA Service Coordinator. “Not only does it provide a service opportunity for us students, but the community benefits from it as well.”

If you didn’t get the chance to donate life-saving blood to support the wide community this time, you will have another opportunity. The recent NHS Blood Drive was only open to students ages 16 and older and staff. However, NHS members are planning to host another blood drive on May 16, and the organization hopes to be able to open the next event to the public.
