As a community that values faith, knowledge, and service, Marin Catholic provides students with a spiritual, academic, and extra-curricular environment. Students are expected, through their experiences in the classroom and as active members of the school community, to develop attributes including personal responsibility, social responsibility, critical ability, and appreciation for the complexity of the world. In partnership with parents, Marin Catholic hopes to instill in its students the confidence that will empower them, as informed and compassionate individuals, to effect positive change in our world.
