St. Mary School

St. Marys has created such a positive experience for our non-religious family. Our daughter was in a public junior high school in our district and was traumatized by staff abuse and bullying. My daughter quit getting an education the minute she hit 6th grade. We decided in her 8th-grade year to try St. marys for 8th grade. It was the best decision we ever made, our daughter caught up academically without extra stress and worry. The staff was amazing with our daughter and the Whole experience was incredible. We are sad she goes to high school next year and loses her St. marys education.

St Mary School is a wonderful school with a great staff! I have a child in high school who attended St Mary's all years and currently have two children enrolled in the school. Small class sizes, caring staff, and active and involved parents help make this school what it is. We are blessed to have this gem of a school in our area!

This school has been such a wonderful learning environment. My kid is excited to go every morning and can't wait to tell me what she learned every day!

This school is an amazing blessing they work with our boys and teach each kid as that child needs. There is not a cookie cutter curriculum. It is personalized to your child. May God bless this school and the staff. They are making a difference in these kids lives.

St. Mary's has been the answer to SO MANY things for our girls as they've found a place to belong, connect, learn, grow, and lead. The admin/staff are committed on a level I have not seen in a very long time, and the 'everyone is involved' approach has made SMS a place for our whole family. Staff, parents, and students are on the same page and working together, and the kids are flourishing because of it. The traditional extra-curricular activities of music, drama, and sports are not always available as volunteers are needed for these programs, but the 'traditions' of St. Mary's like Robotics Club, News Club, 6th-8th Grade Overnight Camps, October fest, Science Fair, Book Fair, plus school/family dinners, cultural and church events keep students actively involved and developing leadership and team-building skills. This has been the perfect 'prep' for my girls during their late elementary and early teen years. We will miss this school once our girls graduate from 8th grade next year!

St. Mary was a true blessing to our family. Many years ago, in Kindergarten, my son was coming home and saying he hated school. At that moment, we knew we needed to look into a change. We decided on St. Mary and we will never regret the financial commitment we made to get a top notch education in both academics and social/emotional learning. Teachers are passionate. Christ is the foundation of the school. High standards for all kids - whether they are struggling or have academic prowess. Bullying is addressed and not ignored. Inclusivity is practiced and encouraged. Leadership is one of collaboration and communication. Both of our kids have now graduated and my son, who is now going to be a junior next year, had a smooth transition, both academically and socially, into the public high school system. I am confident my daughter, an incoming freshman, will also transition well.

St. Mary School is a wonderful little school that feels more like family. The teachers really know and care about their students. It showed even more during the COVID pandemic. They reached out in every way possible to help with work and have it accessible to their students. ZOOM's daily and weekly with each teacher, always making sure that students were receiving the things they needed to succeed during this time. This school has helped both of my daughters grow academically, spiritually and as members of their community.
