Marion Local High School
Garman is helping students "Get Real!" with rigorous and relevant (R&R) community-based projects. At Marion Local High School, students have developed creative and innovative projects that require critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Garman is extending the current projects and adding more to involve all 310 high school students with a goal to include over 600 elementary students in the district. Students are motivated to professionally team up to execute their rigorous projects on a relevant topic to maximize learning opportunities. R&R projects are very technologically advanced with an emphasis on sharing projects and collaborating with other students in different grade levels and other fields. Garman lives in Fort Recovery.
