Greetings,

I welcome you to St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception School. Rooted in gospel values and driven by our Mission, St. Mary School offers a dynamic and enriching faith-based education to students in TK through 8th grade. For over 60 years, our school has nurtured the spiritual and academic lives of our beloved students, and it continues to flourish today under the guidance of our gifted and highly qualified faculty and staff.

Our success is also made possible through our vital partnership with parents and the steadfast support of our parish. This community cultivates a student-centered environment where every child is inspired to deepen their faith, achieve their highest academic potential, and discover ways in which they can positively contribute to an ever-changing world.

Guided by our Blessed Mother, Mary we joyfully strive to shine Christ’s LIGHT each day by being Lifelong Learners, Independent Thinkers, Globally Aware Citizens, Helpful and Respectful Individuals, and Thoughtful Catholic Leaders.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our uniquely special community and for considering St. Mary School as you pursue Catholic education for your children.
