According to the Marist Brothers International Education Commission, “our students are at the center of our concern in all that touches on school life and organization.” We assist them “to acquire learning, competence and values through discovering the world, others, themselves and God.” We “determine educational programs, curriculum content, and teaching methods in light of our mission statement and of the best educational and pedagogical thinking available to us.” (In the Footsteps of Marcellin Champagnat: A Vision for Marist Education Today, 50)
Our graduates will be prepared to:

- Model intellectual leadership through personal integrity, responsibility and ethical standards
“The core of Saint Marcellin Champagnat’s vision of mission was “to make Jesus Christ known and loved. He saw education as the way to lead young people to the experience of personal faith and their vocations as good Christians and virtuous citizens.” We educate “in and for solidarity,” and present it as the “the Christian virtue of our time.” We endeavor to increase young people’s willingness to serve the less fortunate. (In the Footsteps of Marcellin Champagnat: A Vision for Marist Education Today, 35-38)
