SCHOOL DAYS: EDUCATING MARQUETTE COUNTY
October 7 – February 1, 2025
Opening reception: October 23, 2024, from 5:00pm-7:00pm
Explore the educational history of Marquette County from the Bishop Baraga parochial school, to the John D. Pierce School run by Northern Normal. High school education was a luxury for many families, with only 55% finishing school in 1970 nationwide. Marquette was progressive in many ways in educating its children, including building a public high school in 1859. Early examples of technology, class projects, and artwork will be on display.
