Marion County Schools are proud of our very own Ann West for being named District 7 Superintendent of the Year, and she is a finalist for Alabama Superintendent of the Year. We appreciate the leadership of Mrs. West and how she represents Marion County on the district and state level.
While learning about the historical Progressive Era, the students in Mrs. Lee’s social studies classroom at MCHS did a “speed dating” activity where they met and talked as different people from the time period. To prepare for the activity, the students had to create a resume’ and then talk to each other as if they were the person they had researched. Afterwards, they had to see which other progressive their person would match with the best professionally.
Due to the threat of inclement weather on Friday the football game against Holy Spirit will be played Thursday 9/8 at 7pm.
September is Attendance Awareness Month. Starting September 7th, students who have perfect attendance (no checkouts, tardies, or absences) from 9/7 through 9/30 will be entered into a drawing at each school to win $100!!!
All Marion County Schools will be closed this Monday, September 5th, 2022.
Have a safe and fun Labor Day weekend!
