Academics
Where your child learns to love learning
From Pre-K through 8th grade, students learn in small classes where teachers know them by name, curiosity is encouraged, and faith is woven throughout the school day.
Find your child's grade
A gentle, joyful start where play, faith, and friendship come first. Small classes mean every child is known by name.
First through fifth grade, where strong academics, character, and faith build the foundation for everything that follows.
Sixth through eighth grade, where coursework deepens and students grow into confident, grounded young people ready for high school.
Student Enrichment
Learning at St. Joe's reaches past the core subjects. Every student takes part in enrichment that builds creativity, expression, and confidence.
How we teach
An education built for your child's development
At St. Joseph Marquette, academics are about more than test scores. We teach the whole child, building strong minds alongside strong character in a faith-filled environment. Small classes allow teachers to truly know each student, challenge them at the right level, and nurture their natural curiosity. Students leave each grade not only academically prepared, but confident in who they are and how they learn.
