At St. Mary’s, we believe that each student:
- is created in the image of God
- is unique and irreplaceable
- has a purpose according to God’s will
- is more than a mind and has spiritual and emotional needs that must be addressed
- will find his or her true identity by listening to and obeying Christ
- has the potential to bring the light of the gospel to dark places
- has a strong need for validation and affirmation
- has been blessed with valuable gifts that need to be developed
- needs to grow in awareness of his or her own potential and strength

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.

EXPERIENCED TEACHERS
Our goal is to use our love of teaching to foster a love of learning in our students. Our preschool teachers have an average of ten years’ experience in the classroom. They’ve seen trends in early education shift over the years but understand the need to focus on educating the whole child and how to do that. In addition to the teacher, each preschool classroom has a minimum of one teaching assistant. Our prekindergarteners also visit weekly with the librarian, technology specialist, music teacher and physical education instructor.

THE JOY OF LEARNING
At St. Mary’s we want our preschoolers to know the joys of learning and discovery. We believe learning takes place both in and out of the classroom. Field trips allow our students to make connections between their classroom learning and their world. Our tuition at St. Mary’s School is all inclusive; there is never an additional field trip cost, technology fee or book bill. We set up our classrooms so that each student can make their own discoveries about the things that interest them. Each of our classrooms has a designated “science-space” with rotating tools, books, and opportunities to explore.
