I love West Marion and will always have a soft spot in my heart for it after I leave. This place has been like my second home for the past 13 years. I have had good experiences in band, tennis, attending football games, being in academic clubs and learning. It wasn't always the best but I am happy to be a trojan and this place will always be my home and were I found the person I am today.
