We regret to inform you of the death of one of our 10th grade students this morning. A student death is a difficult and challenging situation that can generate a high level of anxiety and distress for some students. During this time, as the school community processes the tragic news and copes with grief, we will offer counseling and bereavement support services to all of our students and staff. A team of counselors, school psychologists, and trained staff at Marion County Middle High School will provide support to any student or staff member in need throughout the upcoming days. Your students may be affected by this tragedy, even if he or she did not know the student. I encourage you to talk to your students about what has happened. Discussing thoughts and feelings about the situation is important in helping your students work through his or her grief.
If you feel your student needs to speak with a guidance counselor, teacher, or other adult, please contact the Guidance Department or School Administration. This is a difficult time for all of us, but I know that our students, staff and community will come together during this tragedy.

With the current climate surrounding school safety, we felt the need to remind the public that no firearm is allowed on a school campus. While we do understand that Georgia has open carry laws, those laws do not permit the possession of a firearm on a school campus. On Thursday, an adult attempting to check their student out of school came on campus with their firearm still secured in the holster. The adult got no farther than the front office. This person has been charged with possession of a firearm on a school campus and has been barred from coming on any Marion County School campus.
There is no known or suspected threat to our schools. We share this in an effort to be completely transparent and as a reminder that NO FIREARMS ARE ALLOWED ON SCHOOL CAMPUS. Thank you for continuing to work together as a community to make sure our students and staff are safe and protected.
We would like to thank our faculty and staff for doing as they always do and protecting our students while giving them all the love and support they can. Thank you to our law enforcement agencies who had an increased presence on campus today and continue to investigate all concerns. Thank you to our parents for being understanding and supportive, and last but certainly not least, thank you to our AWESOME student body who followed all safety protocols and directions today and remained resilient. It is not taken for granted and truly appreciated! For a more detailed update, please visit the school website.
We are aware of a snapchat post that may be circulating in our area. That post is in reference to Marion County High School in Kentucky not Georgia. We will always do our very best to keep you informed and protect our students and employees.
We are aware of a threat to school safety being shared on social media and are actively working with law enforcement to determine its source and credibility. The list is actually a document from Georgia Department of Education identifying schools that qualify for Title I, Part A funds. That identification is based on our socioeconomics and nothing more. The list appears to have been photoshopped to add the heading. Local and state law enforcement are continuing to investigate the source of the image. The safety of our students and staff remains the district's highest priority. Together, we will continue to provide a safe and nurturing learning environment for our students and staff.
