St. Mary Star Of The Sea School vs. St. John The Evangelist Elementary School

Education at Saint Mary's is focused on building skills, increasing knowledge, developing reasoning ability and learning to make good decisions.

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.

Our Mission: St. John School educates students of all faiths in a safe, nurturing Christ-centered environment.

Our Vision: Guided by our Catholic tradition, we provide the highest quality education and empower students to excel spiritually, intellectually and emotionally. We inspire them to reach their full potential and be the Light of Christ in this life and for eternity.

We, as a school family, assist in the spiritual, academic, emotional and social growth of our children. Working with parents, the teachers and staff bring a sense of ministry to their work and make every effort to model the care and concern of Christ for his church in the classroom setting.

At the same time, we challenge each student to reach his/her full academic potential.

As a school family we provide daily opportunities to grow in faith and to become friends with those who share our values, our love of God, and our concern for others.

Academically, we offer a sequential learning continuum providing all students with the essential skills to meet the challenges of today as children, and the challenges of tomorrow as adults.
