Marquette Catholic Schools stands as a beacon of academic excellence by offering diverse and innovative educational opportunities unique to the Bellevue area that are rooted in the virtues of the Catholic faith.
WHY MARQUETTE
Education at Marquette isn't simply about forming the mind. Our holistic approach to education inspires students to form mind, body, and soul to prepare not only for life after high school but eternal life after death.
While this has been a tradition at Marquette since the opening of its doors as St. Joseph's Elementary in 1868, we are excited to implement a virtues-based curriculum. While the world screams for people to find happiness in wealth, pleasure, and power our faculty and staff work to instill God's message to humanity that HAPPINESS IS FOUND IN LIVING A LIFE OF VIRTUE.
