We seek to help our students recognize and develop their individual talents as well as understand and affirm the uniqueness of others.
A strong religion program, growing out of Catholic faith and worship, is the capstone that supports these elements.
St. Mary's School follows the curriculum guidelines set by the Diocese of Lansing.
This includes Social Studies, Science, Math, Phonics, Reading and Language Arts. Our mission at Saint Mary School is to believe that the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, physical, artistic and social growth of our children is a shared responsibility.
Parents, teachers and staff work together to insure that the education first begun and nurtured in the home continues in a Christian atmosphere characterized by love, respect, honesty and understanding.
Queen of the Miraculous Medal School is a Catholic School dedicated to the purpose of challenging children to reach their potential spiritually, morally, academically, emotionally, and physically.
In this endeavor we assist parents in their primary role as educators of their children.
Through a well-rounded curriculum integrated with the message of Jesus Christ, Queen of the Miraculous Medal School strives to develop Christian people who will use their unique talents and gifts to recognize their own goodness in God, experience the family that is our parish, and seek social justice in the global community affirming the presence of Christ in all people.
