Registration for current families and new families

Registration for the upcoming school year will begin soon.  This year registration will be different as we will be registering all families that meet our criteria and get the paperwork completed right away.  There will be no delay for registering Parish children or children from outside of the Parish.  We want to fill our spots as quickly as possible so we can better plan and prepare for next year.  Please watch your child's backpack for registration packets and complete and return those as soon as possible.  Thank you! 

 

 

THE MARQUETTE FOUNDATION

The Marquette Foundation was established in 1977 by alumni and parents with a desire to insure the future of Marquette Catholic High School. Its sole purpose is to benefit the school by providing a long-range source of income through the investment of contributions to an Endowment Fund.

The endowment fund is comprised of donations made through memorials, bequests and campaigns. Holding the endowment in trust, the interest is returned to Marquette High School annually to aid in operating expenses and give financial assistance to students in need.

The Marquette Foundation is accepting nominations for the Board of Directors. If you are interested in submitting your name for consideration please visit Marquette’s website at www.marquette-hs.org for the necessary documents.

The Board of Directors is asking that all nominations be submitted by March 30, 2010.  All submission information and instructions are available on the downloadable form.

If you have any questions, please contact the Foundation office at 219.873.1325, ext. 229.
