FEAST SAINT THEOPHILUS of CORTE
There is a certain dynamism in all the saints that prompts them to find ever more selfless ways of responding to God's grace.  As time went on, Theophilus gave more and more singlehearted service to god and to God's sons and daughters.  Honoring the saints will make no sense unless we are thus drawn to live as generously as they did.  Their holiness can never substitute for our own.

Mission:  Marquette Catholic High School is a Catholic educational community that promotes a college preparatory curriculum rooted in the Gospel values of peace, freedom, love and justice. We afford students opportunities to develop a personal relationship with Jesus and a love for His Church. We challenge students academically, socially and spiritually.

Vision:  The Choice for High School Education

Core Values: Faith, Honesty, Leadership, Respect and Service
Service Learning
united way
The deadline for students to turn in their documentation for our required yearly service hours has passed (May 1).  Many students are already serving their community for next years' required 25 hours of service.  We have managed and processed those hours for graduating seniors.  This week, we will be sending out notices for freshmen-juniors who have not met their 2009-2010 service expectation. 

Students who have not completed their required hours and turned in their documentation by next week will begin serving "additional" hours at school on May 26th starting at 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. and May 27th until 10 additional hours are completed.  The hours remaining for this year will be added to next years' requirement.  Students will not be permitted to participate in extra-curricular activities (summer workouts) until all hours are managed and brought up to date.  We are hoping our newly revised service portfolio, scheduled for implementation next year and currently available at
(Service Learning Portfolio & Service Learning Verification) will assist in the timely completion of students' service hours.  Please contact our Office of Academic Affairs for more information.

Youth Day of Caring 2010youth day of caring
We are closing in on the end of the school year and it's time to recruit our High School teams for this year's Youth Day of Caring that will be held on Saturday morning, August 28, 2010 from 8:00 a.m. until Noon. The event will be held at the Indiana Lakeshore again and we are adding projects at the Dunes State Park , as well. Right now we are looking for team commitments with a team contact (with their contact info of choice-text their cell phone or send an email). This captain can recruit their team members after they agree to participate or let us know now how many will be on their team. We will connect with the team leader, later, to get the t-shirt sizes needed for their team.

This year we are "raising the bar" hoping to engage more than the 300 volunteers that participated last year.  YOU can be a Youth Day of Caring Champion.
Click here or more information.

Contact them before the end of May to confirm your team's participation and the team captain's contact information and approximately how many will be on their team.  Any questions please call: 219.405.8348.
