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.

Marion is not a bad school, we just don't have great teachers, our administration is new so they're getting better. Some teachers are absolutely wonderful and they do all that they can. While some teachers barely care.

The staff could be more concerned with helping students succeed instead of tearing them down and keeping information from them. Why wait till senior year to make sure I am on track with my credits. My mother is involved calling and visiting the school yet she gets the run around.

The best part about our school is our sports teams are the best and some of the teacher are the best and so friendly. The worst part of our school is the students acting up and fighting sometimes
