École Père-Marquette is a secondary school located at the intersection of Marquette and Bellechasse streets in the Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie area. The campus features multiple gymnasiums, a swimming pool, an ice arena, and outdoor athletic fields for student use.
The school opened in 1970 and was an early adopter of environmental initiatives in education. A fire in 2006 led to significant reconstruction and modernization of the building.
The institution provides media arts programs for first to third-year students and digital cinema courses for fourth and fifth-year students.
The campus is accessible by public transportation and situated in a residential neighborhood. Visitors should note that it functions as an active school, so access to certain areas may be limited during regular hours.
In 1995, this school became the first Brundtland Green School in Quebec, setting a standard for environmental practices in education. That pioneering status reflects an ongoing commitment to sustainable operations on campus.
