Our music, band, choir, art and physical education activities integrate the mind and body. Since 1990, our students have a 100% graduation level from both elementary and high school. Our students who go on to college have a 95% graduation rate. St. Mary's earned the prestigious Blue Ribbon School of Excellence given by the US Department of Education to schools in the top 10-15% of all schools in their state -- whether they are public, private or charter. While you do not have to be Catholic to attend St. Mary's, we believe that for any student to develop into a whole person, faith and spirituality formation are essential keys to help each child develop his or her potential academically, spiritually, socially and emotionally. Students are encouraged to grow in their faith and relationship with God, and practice what it means to live like Christ.
