The mission of Saint Mary’s Grade School is to nurture the spirit, challenge the mind, and strengthen the heart of each student who enters her doors. Through the lens of the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, Saint Mary’s cultivates a Christ-centered environment in which we nurture our children, families, and communities, so that we might see the face of Christ in each other.

The students of St. Mary’s Grade School are encouraged to put their Catholic faith into action through prayer, service, and care for others. Throughout the school year, students participate in a variety of service projects that support those in need, including food drives, collections for local organizations such as the Mustard Seed, seasonal outreach projects, and assistance for communities facing hardship.

A treasured St. Mary’s tradition takes place each November in celebration of All Saints Day. Every student researches a saint, prepares an oral presentation about the saint’s life and faith, and creates a visual representation that is displayed throughout the school during the month of November.

Through these experiences, students learn that our Catholic identity extends beyond the classroom—calling each of us to recognize the needs of others, serve our communities, and live our faith through our actions.
