Student Services Mission Statement
Marian Student Services Department believes a developmental and sequential guidance program is an essential and integral part of the overall education process. Students will be challenged to become responsible decision-makers, problem solvers, and self-advocates in charge of their destiny as they strive to achieve the profile of a Marian graduate.
The SUCCESS Program
The SUCCESS Program encompasses the college, career and social-emotional components of the Student Services department. We care about your academics, your future, and you. We believe in your abilities, your talents, and your tomorrow. Your SUCCESS is our goal, and SUCCESS is different for each student. Each academic grade has programs to match their journey - there are speakers, programs and initiatives tailored to the high school experience. This list is not inclusive but will continue to grow and shift as our student's needs change.
The SUCCESS program will:
- Start high school with solid study skills
- Uncover student strengths and abilities
- Care for student mental health
- Create a career plan
- Expand student's horizons
- Search for the right college
- Support students all the way
Marian aligns with the five areas of competence of social-emotional learning identified by CASEL (Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning). These include Self-Awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness, Relationship Skills, and Responsible Decision Making. All our programming in social-emotional learning falls into one or more of these competencies.
