Request a Transcript
Current Students - Official Electronic Transcripts
Current Marshfield High School students use Xello to send transcripts electronically. Most universities, technical colleges and employers require an official transcript. To request an electronic transcript, please log into your Xello account. Instructions are here: Xello Transcript Instructions. There is no cost to send a transcript through Xello. (Click on the icon below to go to the Xello icon to log in.) A transcript release form must accompany a request for a transcript. The form is located here: Transcript Release Form. The form must be signed by a parent or guardian if the person who requests the transcript is under 18.
*A transcript request is a two-step process. The first step is filling out the release and returning it to the counseling office. If emailing, please email to Mrs. Burkhart, Registrar. Her email is burkhartr@marshfieldschools.org. Then, the student must make the request in Xello. Once these two steps are completed, Mrs. Burkhart will release the transcript in Xello and the school will have immediate access to it.

Scholarship Information
Scholarships are available to students at MHS at the local, regional, and national level. Money is generally awarded on the basis of academic achievement, other achievements within school or outside of school, or by special circumstances. Financial need is sometimes a consideration.
For questions regarding scholarships, please contact Krystal Salzmann, School Counselor and Scholarship Coordinator at salzmannk@marshfieldschools.org or (715) 387-4332 x 3
*Many local scholarship applications are in Google Doc format. Students must be logged in with their school Google Account to access them.
We encourage all students and families to apply for financial aid through the FAFSA (Free Application for Student Aid). Many scholarships rely on the EFC (Expected Family Contribution) number to determine financial need, and will ask for that information on their applications. If you have any questions about FAFSA as it relates to scholarships, please contact Mrs. Salzmann.
