Marist provides a college preparatory academic program that effectively integrates intellectual, spiritual, social, and physical student development. Consistent with its Catholic identity, Marist helps students of all religions reach toward their full potential by affirming, throughout all its programs, the Gospel message of individual worth and redemption.
Profile of the Marist Graduate The Marist Staff has identified four general categories to describe our ideal graduate. These four categories contain the specific characteristics we want to instill in our students so they can continue the mission of Marist Catholic High School. Academically Prepared By graduation, the Marist student will exhibit a mastery of the fundamentals of the academic requirements for higher education. The student will have developed many interdisciplinary skills and understandings, which go beyond academic requirements for college entrance. The student, moreover, is beginning to see the need for intellectual integrity, particularly the need to integrate the spiritual vales of the school with all aspects of life. By graduation, the Marist student will: ● demonstrate the fundamentals of those academic subjects required for graduation from Marist Catholic High School and establish the skills for a successful college experience. ● be committed to being a life-long learner and open to growth. ● be competent in the application of multiple technologies. ● demonstrate intellectual curiosity, critical thinking and problem solving skills. ● possess skills to be a productive and positive influence on his/her community. ● have an appreciation and understanding of the integration of faith and knowledge. ● be familiar with the teachings of the Catholic Church and an advocate for Catholic Social Justice. Morally Strong By graduation, the Marist student will have a basic knowledge of the major doctrines and practices of the Catholic Church. The graduate will also have examined personal moral and religious feeling and beliefs in order to choose fundamental orientations toward God and to establish a relationship with a religious tradition. The level of theology understanding of the Marist graduate will be limited by the student's level of religious and human development. |
By graduation, the Marist student will:
● have developed a relationship with God and will live out the Gospel values taught to us by Jesus Christ. ● know the value of Christian community and actively seek to re-create it throughout his/her life. ● understand and value the teachings of the Catholic Church in the daily decisions he/she will make. ● understand and practice truth, honesty, perseverance and compassion in all his/her actions. ● be a person of integrity whose life mirrors the Christian message of hope and love. ● respect the diversity and wonder of God's creation in all its manifestations. ● follow the living example of Jesus Christ over the full course of his/her lifetime. ● appreciate the essential importance of prayer, participation, liturgical celebration and spiritual reflection to a full life. Socially Aware The Marist graduate has achieved considerable knowledge of the many needs of local and wider communities, and is preparing to take a place in the communities as a competent, concerned and responsible member. The graduate has begun to acquire the skills and motivation necessary to live socially aware of others. Although this attribute will come to fruition in mature adulthood, some predispositions will have begun to manifest them earlier. By graduation, the Marist student will: ● comprehend that the full Christian life can only exist through the integration of the love of God, self and others. ● have developed self-confidence, social skills and an ability to meet and work with others. ● understand the importance of tolerance, compassion and justice in all social interactions. ● be open to continued growth as a spiritual individual and part of the human community. ● respect the marvel of human diversity and seek to understand others from their perspectives. ● have developed a life-long commitment to assisting those who are less fortunate. ● recognize that the Christian call to service is not really a choice, but a duty. |
