Very little emphasis on college readiness. This includes SAT prep, AP Tests, and college applications. Would love to see more emphasis on areas that truly prepare you for a 4-year college education.

My sister is a student at this school. She is in 8th grade now, and since 6th she’s been consistently outcasted & bullied. The situations have been brought up to administration every time something arises, but each time without fail, the situation gets swept under the rug. We get a “well there’s nothing really we can do, stay out of drama”. The students at this school (not all, only the ones in our experience) are hateful, selfish, and all around just stuck up brats. No child should fear going to school in the mornings. My last point—if you don’t have a political standing in Marion, you get treated like dirt. There is obvious and very blatant favoritism toward kids who have a name, or for that matter have any association with the sports teams. Anymore, marion school district only cares about sports.
