Marist School is a private Catholic school located in Brookhaven, Georgia, United States, north of the city of Atlanta. Founded in 1901, it is operated independently of the Archdiocese of Atlanta. [6] [7]
Marist School was originally founded by the Society of Mary (Marists) in 1901, opening its doors on October 2 of that year. The school originated as a boys' military school called Marist College and was located in a three-story schoolhouse on Ivy Street, now Peachtree Center Avenue, in downtown Atlanta. In the 1940s, while it was a military school, the boys wore a blue military uniform with a soft cap, and performed a marching drill routine on the field, which was next to the school and in front of the Sacred Heart Catholic School.
