| Thinking about "Faith in Education"?
Applications for admission in 2010-2011 are now being accepted.
The ability of St. Mary's School to address the whole child sets this learning community apart from others. In a safe, nurturing environment that features a consistent moral compass, students are free to excel academically and grow into the people God intends them to be.
Encouraged to lead and taught to serve, students graduate from St. Mary's with confidence, well prepared for secondary education and to assume the rights and responsibilities of Christian young adults.
For more information or to schedule an appointment at your convenience, please call the school office at 860-658-9412.

Our mission as a Catholic Parochial school is to foster spiritual and
academic growth in a nurturing, safe environment. The educational, physical and
cultural experience supports the development of the child in a faith-based community.
We strive to instill in our students the desire to know, love and serve God. We endeavor to provide a challenging academic setting that encourages our students to gain mastery of skills and subject matter through active engagement in the learning process.
Faculty and administration, in partnership with each family, encourage students
to excel in academics and effectively utilize technology. We aspire to graduate
students who are spiritually alert, morally aware and ethically empowered young
adults. |
