Senior: I've really, truly enjoyed my time here at St. Bede and it's been great meeting so many new friends, teachers, staff, etc. Everyone is super welcoming and friendly here, making me excited to go to school every day. There's always something new and exciting to look forward to each and every day so it makes going to school fun (as fun as school can get). The only thing I'd like to see change is more school spirit and hype for sports events. As an underclassman, I always saw how much fun the older kids would have cheering front row in the student section and I couldn't wait for it to be my turn. Now that it is, it's really not that exciting or fun. It's not the school's fault, really, but it's lowered my expectations about high school. I just wish these memories of football games, school dances, etc were more hyped up and fun because then it would bring fun memories for me to look back on post-graduation. Overall, I couldn't imagine myself spending my high school years anywhere else.... Read 80 reviews

Parent: My child is a high school student who has been here for four years and is about to enter university. The atmosphere of the school is very good. The teachers are very enthusiastic, and the students are very happy to study and do activities together! Worth mentioning, the school athletic sports are very strong. In addition, the area where the school is located is quiet and peaceful, and the school is safe. In a word, as a mother, I think my child has an unforgettable life pursuing knowledge in Marquette. I am pretty satisfied with the school.... Read 50 reviews

Junior: I moved into Earlville as a sophomore and couldn't be happier with the change. My class is small, so my teachers have time to help each one of us individually if we need it and I feel like they really care about my success. The variety of classes EHS offers isn't as large as a big school, but I still feel like the classes they do have offer me enough choice to explore. A lot of the students at EHS participate in sports and we have a great student section at most events. The level of school spirit is high, and we are all proud Raiders!... Read 26 reviews

Alum: I was highly involved in the music department, Interact club, tennis, Spanish club, National Honor Society, Spanish National Honor Society, and more! I found the facilities and food to be exactly what I would expect from a well-functioning high school. I also strongly feel that we were given the tools and time needed to perform well on the SAT, and other required exams. MHS did a fantastic job of preparing us, whether we said we wanted it or not. Additionally, the variety of clubs that were offered was a huge plus for me. For a school of roughly 600 students, the options are vast! I appreciated the system that is in place requiring coaches and club sponsors to split time evenly if there is a conflict.... Read 72 reviews
