Our historic campus offers small class sizes, 1:1 technology, updated facilities, and opportunities for student enrichment in humanities.
We are open to students of all faiths and teach about the Catholic faith.
Our focus is on the whole child and we offer instruction that focuses on social, emotional, and executive skills.
Students and their families choose St. Mary School for the strength of our academics and the warmth of our inclusive and nurturing community.
