Why Choose St. Mary's?

Parent Voices

"We want our children to get more than academics in their education. St. Mary's teaches religion/morals, provides a warm environment, and promotes a sense of community. We like the full day pre-school program, after school care, and the wonderful people who work there."

"We have sent our seven children to St. Mary's School. It's much more than an outstanding education; it's a family to us."

"Our kids started St. Mary's in the fall of 2004 and we have never once regretted the decision we made; the kids enjoy school and our family feels connected with the school community."

"We send our daughter to St. Mary's School because of the personal attention and quality education she receives from the dedicated teachers and staff."

"I love St. Mary’s. The teachers really care about my girls; I know they are safe and loved. That’s important to me and my children."

"We love the small class size and the strong academic program, but the primary reason we send our children to St. Mary’s is because of the faith-based learning. Growing up is so very hard to do, and we want our children to be able to learn about Jesus in school and at home so that they will be able to handle all of life’s struggles."

Teacher Voices

 "I sent my children here. What I like best about St. Mary’s is that everyone works as one and the children are put first. I grew up with a Catholic education and wanted to give back to Catholic education, and what better place is there to do this than St. Mary’s School?"

Mrs. Ray, 1st Grade Teacher

St. Mary’s is a wonderful place to teach. I am really enjoying my time here. The children are so happy and enthusiastic to be here.

Mrs. Considine, 2nd Grade Teacher

All four of my children went to school here and are doing quite well educationally and spiritually. I really enjoy teaching at this school. One of the things that I like best is gathering around the prayer table with my class and sharing life’s joys and sorrows.

Now that I am in high school, I realize how educationally prepared I was at St. Mary's.

St. Francis High School Sophomore, 2003 St. Mary’s Graduate

St. Mary’s provided me with a quality education that prepared me well for my high school years at St. Francis High School, where I graduated at the top of my class. My friends from St. Mary’s and I are thankful that we were fortunate enough to go to this school.

2nd Grader

The best thing about St. Mary’s School for me is the spiritual growth that I’ve received. We go to Mass weekly to be close to God. We also have confession, daily prayers and communion. We talk about treating each other the way God would want us to. St. Mary’s has been the best school for me. I look forward to going every day and seeing the teachers and my friends.
