The Marion Transition Center was created recently to serve our Marion students. The Transition Center aims to equip students with life and vocational skills to achieve maximum independence in adulthood. It fosters meaningful community and workplace experiences while promoting self-advocacy, self-determination, and skills like self-monitoring and goal setting. The center also provides opportunities to explore recreation and leisure activities available to adults and respects each student’s right to make choices about their future.
Last year one of our very own students created the logo and design that was adopted by the Marion School Board. We are prepared to equip our students and staff with everything to represent the Transition Center with. We have shirts, sweatshirts, cups (can be personalized), hats, and stickers.
