What's New

Congratulations to Murlin Heights staff, students and parents on the school's attainment of Excellent with Distinction! Teachers at every grade level have worked hard to ensure students not only meet, but exceed, academic expectations. A top-notch teaching staff, involved parents, strategic assessments, professional development and the district's emphasis on standards-based grading all contributed to this world-class achievement. Watch for an article about how Murlin Heights earned this achievement in the Drummer!

Mrs. Marvin and Mrs. Vance share their strategies for building student achievement
with Vandalia Drummer reporter Phil Collins.
