School Notes

  • *Our students are encouraged to become independent and critical thinkers, self-reliant, and resourceful. Only by thinking for themselves, understanding complex subject matters, and exercising creative problem-solving, can they meet the academic rigor necessary to excel in school and in life.
  • *Enveloped by kindness, patience, and care, our students learn the value of civility, collaboration, and compassion. Modeling these values, teachers, parents, and students celebrate diversity and build relationships without regard to socioeconomic status, culture, or faith.

St. Mary's is an incredible community. The teachers and staff are fully committed to engaging with every student. The parish is immensely supportive of the school financially, spiritually, and socially. Families are encouraged to be engaged and involved at the school. We challenge our students to work hard. We have strong academics in language, mathematics, science, and social studies as well as a high-quality religious studies program and Spanish literacy, where students are exposed to the language and culture of many Spanish-speaking communities. Graduates in good standing are accepted into Bishop Kelly.
