Thank you, Monty and Valerie Hill! 🎶❤️💙

The Marion School District would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Monty and Valerie Hill for their leadership, dedication, and impact on the Patriot Pride Band. Since arriving in 2020, they set out to elevate Marion’s band program to one of the best in the state -- and they delivered.

During their time at Marion, the Hills helped grow the program from fewer than 150 students to nearly 400, earning 15 ASBOA Sweepstakes Awards, 10 grand championships, and countless All-Region and All-State honors, among many other honors and recognitions.

As Monty takes on a new role as Director of Bands at Henderson State University and Valerie begins a well-earned retirement, we wish them both nothing but the best. Their legacy of excellence and pride will continue at Marion for years to come.

Marion Junior High School Counselors Debbie Jackson and LaTarsha Johnson hosted informational meetings for parents of rising 8th and 9th grade students Tuesday evening! We loved having parents come and chat with our counselors about course options for their students. There is much to consider when looking at available courses for students and MJHS wants all parents and students to be ready to learn!

Happy Valentine’s Day from MJHS! 💘 We’re feeling the love and sharing the smiles all day long!
