Glad we moved our students far away from here. Marion has had a bullying problem for many years, and the teachers and principal ignore it because the bullying is done by their own children. The kids think they are above other kids because their parents are teachers or family members. My kids grades and self esteem were in a constant downward spiral when they attended Marion High School. As soon as we moved, the kids grades excelled, along with their self esteem, and whole outlook on life. There needs to be a clean sweep with new staff before anything gets better around there. Please don't send your children there!

Dedicated staff and administration. Plenty of opportunity for a small school. Rated one of the areas best and I can see why.

Marion Public School is a great small school, students are very receptive and accepting to all. We have a wonderful sports program including football, sideline cheer, volleyball, basketball, cross country, competitive cheer, track, softball& baseball. Students are allowed to play more than 1 sport per season (unlike most schools)and most generally everyone makes the team. Our School has been recognized & honored by the state in more than one sport for athletic teams with high a G.P.A . Small class sizes, after school tutoring, now starting some excelled student class opportunities, dual enrollment & now Career Tech Center classes in Cadillac offered in the morning & afternoon. Are just some of the positive points of our school. Our Elementary has also been recognized & Honored for our "Carbo reading Program" . I have had one child graduate and positively ready for college and proudly two more that are excelling in Marion. If you are a supportive & involved parent you will be very satisfied with education your child can receive.

This school has gone through so much in the past few years. As a parent, I am sickened by a small group of community members, disgruntled ex employees and even a couple of current employees that have created such embarrassment and chaos for this school and its community. Instead of the school being able to concentrate on student learning, it has had to protect itself from an on-slot of negative and disrespectful behavior by this group. This band of people has made it impossible for the school s administration to remove a few incompetent teachers and improve achievment. I am so disappointed for the students and the community that these people have cast such a negative light on the school and cost the school district so much of its dwindling resources on frivolous and personal agendas . Shame on them!
