Welcome
St. Joseph/Marquette Catholic School wants to build community and educate the total child (spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, physically, and socially) in values consistent with the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Education at St. Joseph/Marquette Catholic School and the Mother Joseph Center is an endeavor which involves the students, parents, teachers and priests in the development of each child.
Emphasis is placed upon a strong academic program. Each child will be recognized and encouraged in keeping with his/her own personal talents and abilities with opportunities available for special programs and tutoring.
If you are moving to the Yakima area, or considering a Catholic education for your children, please visit St. Joseph/Marquette Catholic School to learn more about the school's academic and extra-curricular programs and how they build children's futures. Ask why we have "Faith in Every Student" and what that would mean for your child's education.
