Faith Formation
Encounter Truth, Goodness, and Beauty
Marian invites students to lives of discipleship through spiritual formation and intellectual pursuit of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty. Alongside our comprehensive four-year theology curriculum, optional weekly Masses, monthly all-school Masses, and frequent opportunities for Eucharistic adoration, Bible study, rosary, and community service enrich the spiritual lives of our students.
It is a great advantage for us to be able to consult someone who knows us, so that we may learn to know ourselves.

"Confession is an act of honesty and courage - an act of entrusting ourselves, beyond sin, to the mercy of a loving and forgiving God."
Christian Service
Following the example of Mary our Mother who brought Jesus to the world, we respond to the most pressing needs of our time through spreading the liberating mission of Jesus Christ to the poor, abandoned, and oppressed.
Theology Curriculum
Grounded in the liberating mission of Jesus, our theology curriculum is designed to maximize the spiritual, intellectual, and personal growth of the student; classes are designed to lead to an internalization of the teachings of Jesus, a personal relationship with God, trust in the wisdom of the Spirit, and a clear understanding of what it means to live as a person of faith.
