GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I have been a student at West Marion High School sense kindergarten West Marion has taught me to always be authentic with my school work and never give up. West Marion might be a small school but the principals over the years and the different staffs has always pushed us to always try your best and life your high school experience to the fullest. I would like to see a change in more sports options.
