Marianna Middle School Guidance

"Where Excellence Is A Tradition"

Our mission is to guide students effectively toward becoming responsible, competent, and respectful young adults with a sense of enthusiasm and purpose.

We see our students as individuals who are willing to take chances and challenge themselves in order to become valued members and leaders of their community.

We want our children to:

-         set high standards

-         take risks, become well-rounded, and explore new opportunities

-         establish a prideful work ethic and exercise strong time management skills

-         develop personal responsibility, a love of learning, and problem-solving strategies

-         appreciate the connections between rules, rights, and responsibilities

-         practice civility, tolerance, and respect

-         understand and respect boundaries

-         engage in healthy, meaningful social relationships

-         develop meaningful connections to their community

The counselors are available to help students adjust and thrive during the transitional years between elementary and high school.  The guidance office is committed to serving the unique needs of middle-level students with regard to their academic success and emotional and social growth.

We look forward to getting to know your children and encourage parents to contact us with any questions or concerns.
