School Notes

  • School Motto: WE ARE PRAYERFUL. WE ARE CRUSADERS.
  • Catholic Education has been a strong tradition in Muskegon for over a century. The mission of offering a Christ-centered education for children began in 1871 when three members of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Order established the first parochial school at St. Mary's Parish. Their shared vision with the Muskegon community thrives more than 130 years later as Muskegon Catholic Schools continue to educate young men and women with Christ as the focus and role model.
