St. Mary's Catholic School-building a strong mind, body and spirit in Christ in a faith-based community.

Why a Catholic School Education?

The tradition of the Church has always seen Catholic education as a process of forming young people into disciples of Christ Jesus.  The mission of a Catholic school is understood as part of our obedience to the commandment of the risen Christ to “Go and make disciples”. The Church believes and teaches that parents are the primary educators of their children in faith and morals. St. Mary’s School exists to assist parents in the promise they made to God and the Church on the day of their child’s baptism:  “To train their child in the practice of the faith, and to bring them up to keep God’s commandments as Christ has taught us, by loving God and our neighbor.” Our educational approach and purpose is therefore very different from that of a public school. In addition to setting high academic standards in all subject areas, we are committed to forming disciples who will witness to the world the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in both word and action.  We know that we have been commissioned to transform the world; bring reconciliation and healing to a world damaged by sin.  We exist to make saints because we recognize that our citizenship is in heaven.
