In view of bearing witness to Christ and cultivating an active faith community in a changing world, the Administration and faculty of St. Mary’s School promotes an education, which is responsive to the spiritual, intellectual, psychological and physical needs of Students.

Rooted in the teachings of the Church, we maintain a distinctive Catholic character by emphasizing personal growth, self-discipline and Christian responsibility to God and humanity. We strive to develop and nurture each Student’s gift of Faith by making instruction in religion a top priority. We exist to provide and promote a school climate of mutual respect, confidence and self-esteem wherein Students can appreciate themselves and others while acquiring knowledge, skills, virtues and attitudes which will transfer learning to real and often conflicting issues in daily life encounters. We recognize and praise any effort made by Students to bear witness to Christ through exemplary behavior. We provide relevant and timely topics for developing critical thinking skills especially those concerning moral issues and conscience formation.

Always aware of new approaches and techniques, we strive to provide high quality academic instruction and to develop an understanding of ethnic and cultural backgrounds and traditions. Opportunities for group interaction and social growth invite Students to reach out in loving concern to all God’s people to build a Christian community working for justice and peace.

For blessings on all our efforts we join in common prayer. As Christians, we are confident of ultimate success, trusting not in ourselves, but in Jesus Christ, who is the inspiration, the content and the goal of Christian education.
