April 3, 2010 edition of the Wenatchee World showed an article of my brother Jim Marion with my his wife Sarah and my niece Christina and nephew Daniel in giving them home school education. First of all lets get historical into Jim's family background. He was born into a family that where both parents had to work for a living did not have time to teach at home. Jim's education start at a day care center called Joyce's Day Care next to a gas station on Railroad Avenue in Snoqualmie in the late 1970's. Then at five years old he attended elementary school starting in Ms. Conner's class at North Bend Elementary in Kindergarten. He attended North Bend Elementary from kindergarten to fourth grade when he had to attend fifth and sixth grades at Snoqualmie Elementary since mother moved to Meadowbrook neighborhood in Snoqualmie. Meadowbrook was one of the poorest neighborhoods in the Snoqualmie Valley. Then since he excelled very well that the Snoqualmie Valley School District allowed him to pass to the junior high a month while his big brother had semester to make up since they refused to give me credit for it. Jim felt out of place when we were living in Meadowbrook from a average class neighborhood in Downtown North Bend and Si View Park area. During his middle school years while he was attending Kodiak Middle School in Kodiak, Alaska where he excelled in his studies while we were living at the Woody Way housing project and where we live in a rent to own house on Chichenoff Street. He did not enjoy living like a common folk. He started hang around people who part of the Kodiak Native Life and Kodiak Bible Chapel which gave him a concept of christian education which he could not have for himself Dad and mother could not afford it. Then during a dare of one of my friends I bet her $5 to have my little brother not return to Alaska which he did not. He graduated a good grade point average at Cle Elum High School which attending the Christian Missionary Alliance Church in South Cle Elum. Then he dabble with firefighter and met a young maiden who later become his wife a cute blond hair from above average family who parents actually declared bankruptcy once named Sarah Black and he married this young maiden in 1995. Both of them have college degrees however Sarah decided to be like mom Diane and teach my nieces Christina and Esther May and my nephew Daniel at home with textbooks from Costco nothing wrong with that.
Update as of January 2013, he spends most of his time in the Atlanta metropolitan area with mother doing most of the teacher while their father speaks about a book titled People Soft and its Technique paid by McGraw Hill while he owns condos in Georgia and many rentals in the Wenatchee area. He is a very successful owner of an online business to help consulting software it is called JSM Pros here is that website https://www.jsmpros.com/
