We are new to the school but I can't speak highly enough about the Principal and the Staff. Very dedicated staff and well organized. We are looking forward to this journey.

mchs is ok for the most part the teachers are very good at forming a connection with the kids and work hard to do so, the teachers are also for the most part very good about explaining information and allowing you to come in and get extra help if necessary, and they offer dual credit/ap credit which is very helpful for college preparedness but they favor and prioritize kids who's parents are alums/been there generations, even though it is a catholic school the teachers like to brag that they have "students of all religions" but then continue to perpetuate the "catholics are right about everything and all other religions are wrong" narrative, the students are extremely cliquey because they've gone to school together for years in small schools, they don't offer many ap classes, oh and can't forget that parents your outrageous amount of tuition money is going to your kids getting drug drug tested and sports that are horrible but still receive more funding than necessary

My time a Marquette has been an experience like no other. I have had so much fun throughout the years. Whether it was attending a football game to acting in the school musical to even volunteering for service opportunities. Marquette has something for everyone and if they don't then it is made known. Something I would like to see a change in is more student run activities. I feel like we need to keep the students involved and engaged in the things that will make their "High School Experience" just as great ad mine.

The students of color are treated differently. There is zero diversity on staff. The black kids all sit together at one table. The school does not work toward equity. They have a good basketball team.

Contacted school to ask simple question as to if any minorities are on staff. The office lady sounded as if she was offended. I told her I was asking because I prefer a diverse teaching staff. She hung up on me. 2 thumbs down. I guest that answered my question.

Marquette is a very good school with fantastic attention to their students. They are very strict compared to other schools, but that also helps shape the students to the best they can be!
