Welcome to the site of the Institute of the Marist Brothers of the Schools (FMS - Fratres Maristae a Scholis)
We Marist brothers are religious consecrated to God, and we follow Jesus in the way that Mary did. We live in community and dedicate ourselves in a special way to the education of children and young people, with a preference for those who are the most neglected.
The Marist Brothers are in 79 countries on five continents. Using this map we invite you to take a trip around the world and see where we serve.Read more

02/10/2014: Haiti
In August we held our first Leadership Camp for Haiti in the buildings of the College Notre Dame de la Nativité in Dame-Marie. Those taking part were 30 young people from our colleges of Latibolière and Dame-Marie, as well as the postulants and novices and 6 Brothers, co-ordinated by Br Agustín Acevedo from México.
Three days during which the young people had the opportunity to discover their leadership abilities.
Three days of living together, of challenges (most of them overcome) and a lot of learning.
Three days when the brothers who were present could come to know the youth as they are, with all their abilities and limitations.
We are aware that this is only the beginning of a project to form our Haitian youth as leaders capable of transforming the little part of the world in which they live.
