Our Vision
St. Mary’s School is a faith community committed to enriching the lives of our students through knowing, loving, and serving God. The students will achieve academic success through increased technology, creative teaching strategies, and an up to date curriculum based upon the National Common Core Standards of Learning, Next Generation Science Standards, and the C-3 Framework: National Council for the Social Studies. The school will offer a wide range of extracurricular activities that support social interactions, physical development, and creative expressions. The students will also continue their commitment to the service of others within our community and surrounding areas. St. Mary’s School will challenge each family to live their faith through participation in weekly Mass, daily prayers, and the sacramental life of our universal church.
