Marquette Catholic Elementary School is dedicated to excellence in education based upon fidelity to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to the Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church.

Marquette provides each child with opportunities to grow and develop in all aspects of life: spiritually, morally, intellectually, emotionally, socially and physically.

Marquette Catholic School draws its inspiration and strength from Jesus the Master Teacher.

His teachings and example illumine all educational programs and activities by interpreting and giving order to human culture and providing true understanding of the child as a human and spiritual being called to develop his or her fullest potential.

With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, Marquette responds to the call to teach as Jesus taught; in faith we join together to bring the living message of Christ to the children as students, to their families as the primary educators of their children, and to each other also, through prayer, example and service.

Marquette Catholic School is committed to educating each child in a Godly manner that develops high standards of thinking and behavior, a well-formed conscience, sound judgement, personal thoughtfulness and self-discipline.
