A CHRIST-CENTERED CLASSICAL PK3-12 SCHOOL

cultivating a love of all that is true, beautiful, and good.
- Cultivating wisdom and virtue for your child by nourishing the soul with what is enduring, noble, and character shaping.
- Why Choose St. Mary's school?
  
  At St. Mary's, we believe education should nurture not only the mind, but also the heart and soul. Families choose this school because faith is woven into the fabric of each day, helping students grow into compassionate, confident, and Christ-centered individuals.
  Our schedule reflects this commitment. Students attend Mass three days per week, participate in religious formation four days per week and are provided with ample opportunities to deepen their faith and understanding of the world. This regular engagement with religious practices and teachings helps to strengthen faith, encouraging them to view the world through a spiritual & moral lens.

The Chesterton Schools Network
- Saint Mary's is a member of the international Chesterton Schools Network. Named for G. K. Chesterton, who lived the Catholic faith with wit, wisdom, clarity, and charity, Chesterton network schools offer a broad liberal arts education with an emphasis on cultivating Christian virtues.
  
  The beauty and goodness of God’s creation are woven into the entire curriculum. Students study the great books of Western civilization and are encouraged to ask all the tough questions that high school students ask. Teaching styles emphasize excellent writing, clear thinking, and seminar-style conversation.

  - St. Mary's Teacher
- "Both of my children went here for most of their elementary education; job requirements dictate a move out of state; I truly wish we could pack up and take the school with us. There's no better value for education available anywhere, I give this school my highest recommendation."
