The Virtual Academy will serve students in kindergarten through twelfth grade as a comprehensive schooling option. Students enrolled in the Virtual Academy will adhere to South Carolina's academic standards. Additionally, students will have the opportunity for proficiency-based learning opportunities through personalized instructional curricula as well as interactions with a certified teacher via Microsoft Teams and other online platforms. Students enrolled in the program will be provided a device and families will be required to participate in an orientation/workshop regarding the program.

The table honors the men and women who served in America’s Armed Forces

The table is round- to show our everlasting devotion and concern for our fallen and missing comrades.

The cloth is white- symbolizing the purity of their motives when answering the call to duty.

The single red rose, displayed in a vase, remind us of the life, and the blood that was shed, and their loved ones and friends who keep the faith and await answers.

The vase is tied with a red ribbon, symbol of our commitment, and continued determination to account for our missing.

The white candle is for peace.

A slice of lemon on the plate is to remind us of the bitter fate of those captured and missing in a foreign land.

The salt is to remind us of the tears endured by those missing and their families who still seek answers.

The black napkin is a reminder of the isolation, deprivation, and cruel fate of our missing.

The Bible represents the strength gained through faith to sustain those lost from our country, founded as one nation under God.

The glass is inverted- to symbolize their inability to share this evening with us.

The chair is empty and tilted -they are not here- and will remain so until they return or are accounted for.

"You are not forgotten so long as there is one left in whom your memory remains"

October is National Bullying Prevention Month.  Students were encouraged to “stand up” against bullying and let their voices be heard during Homecoming Week.  During their lunch periods on October 15, 2019, they wrote Anti-Bullying messages on flags and planted the flags in the ground in front of the school.  Students wrote messages; such as,   “Stop Bullying”, “Tell Someone”, “You are Special”, and “Be You”.

Marion High School students will always remember what they did, what to do, and how to respond to bullying because of the powerful visual display they created outside their school.
