Marian Central Friday Focus
289th Issue - April 5, 2024
From the Desk of Mr. Mike Shukis
I wanted to take this opportunity to share our new Mission Statement, Vision Statement, Value Statement, Profile of a Marian Graduate, and our three new pillars. I would like to thank our parent groups and faculty members who helped by adding some great input to these very important documents.
Our mission, vision and the three pillars all lead to our tagline – Building Men and Women for Life. This is who Marian Central Catholic is and what we will be working toward everyday of every school year. I ask that students, parents and all alumni hold us to these standards. In Truth, Unity, and Grace, we will move Marian Central forward for many years to come.
