School Pride & Lasting Friendships

 


At St. Mary’s School, we want our littlest learners to know they are a valued and full member our school. Our prekindergarten classes participate in all developmentally appropriate, schoolwide functions including assemblies, spirit activities, field day and religious celebrations. Our prekindergarten students wear their school uniforms proudly. We know that a key part of early childhood development is social and emotional growth. We promote positive participation in our school community, respect for fellow students and teachers, and helping one another. At St. Mary’s School, we provide a positive learning environment where our students can form lasting friendships.

History of the St. Mary's Church Convent and Parochial School

 

Newspaper Clipping from 1951


The building site for St. Mary's Catholic Church convent and parochial school in Rockville was staked out Tuesday and, according to Rev. Gilbert Hann, the school may be completed by next September.

A two-story structure of cinder block, the attractive building will be located on the church grounds.

The first floor will be used for classrooms and will hold a maximum capacity of 400 students; the second floor will accommodate ten Sisters, although the school will open with four.

All eight grades of grammar school will be taught.

The building was designed so that additional wings can be added as demand requires and someday Father Hann hopes to construct the five-hundred seating capacity auditorium that will be connected to the school as shown in the picture.

The construction contract was awarded to Victor I. Beauchamp of Rockville, the lowest bidder. The architect was Maurice S. May.

Thanks to St. Mary's Parishioner Randy Isenburg for providing the clipping.

St. Mary's School Is A Great Place To Grow


Since 1951 we have been forming responsible, faith-filled children through a rigorous curriculum that marries faith, academics and service. The greatest testament to our mission of educating the whole child is the fact that so many alumni return to the halls of St. Mary’s School to educate their children. We are expanding every day through an array of extracurricular opportunities, an extended preschool with all-day hours and ongoing training for staff and administrators.​
