Summary

At the April 28 meeting Marion City Schools issued proclamations and certificates honoring student academic and athletic achievements, an oratorical contest winner and the Harding High head basketball coach’s milestone.

The Marion City Schools Board of Education used its April 28 meeting to recognize student and staff achievement with proclamations and certificates.

The board presented a proclamation recognizing Harding High School junior Reagan Tway for a reported perfect composite score of 35 on the ACT and perfect subsection scores in STEM areas. The board also issued a “gold” proclamation for freshman gymnast Devine (spelled in transcript as Divine/Devine) Reynolds for becoming an OHSAA state champion on the balance beam and earning All‑Ohio recognition in multiple events.

Coach Jamie Pearson, Harding High School head boys basketball coach, received a proclamation honoring a 20‑4 season and a January 18 milestone of reaching his 150th career coaching victory; the presentation noted regional Coach of the Year honors. The board additionally presented certificates of achievement to Ayla Longacre (first place, ninth‑through‑twelfth‑grade Martin Luther King Jr. oratorical contest) and Gabrielle/Gabriel Ross Vaness (first place, third‑through‑fifth‑grade oratorical contest) for performances at the Peace & Freedom Committee events.

The proclamations and certificates were read into the record and the board approved each by roll‑call vote.

Ending Board members congratulated the honorees and the meeting moved on to regular business; staff arranged photos and brief remarks following each recognition.
