WoW this school is awesome, my daughter is in mrs.humphreys kindergarden class and she loves it, all the staff is so nice and welcoming at the school, im so glad i chose this school cause my oldest daughter goes to edwins elemantary and she has had so many problems with kids bulling her and there is NO bulling at this school that i seen so far, i sure wish i could afford for my other child to attend this school cause she would be here in a geart beat!
My daughter went to kindergarten last year she attended Mrs.Humphrey's class. She also had Mrs Toress as her aid. I was very happy she was reading chapter books by the 3rd month of school. The principal has always been more than accommadating to any of my needs. This school and the staff truly care about their students. I am not catholic however I feel very welcomed here. This truly is a wonderful school. The school is very well maintained and kept clean as well. If you are in need of a private school please give our school a visit. Thank you St. Mary's I am truly blessed to be able to send my child to such a wonderful school. My childis now attends first grade and I plan for her to stay here until 8th. My only complaint about this school is that they do not educate high school grades.
My three children attended St. Mary School for three years. We loved the family atmosphere, the small size and the commitment to molding well rounded students. Now that we have left the area, we realize what a gem St. Mary's truly is!
I went to this scool from k4 to 7th grade. It is very advanced and it has great teachers and students.
My child was enrolled in St. Mary's VPK program in 2007-2008 school year. I can not express enough gratitude to all the staff at St. Mary's! My child loved it at St. Mary's and the staff were absolutely wonderful to my most prized possession, my son! I will recommend this school to any one and everyone I come across. I am a very busy single mother and I am so comfrontable leaving my child with his 2nd family (St. Mary's) while I work! I would rate this school beyond 5-stars if possible.
I am a former student know in high school and it was an easy transistion to FWBHS and it was a great school putting me way ahead of others at the school .Going into 10th grade our honors english summer reading is a book that we read in 7th grade.
My student went from K-4 through the 8th grade at this Blue Ribbon School. The level of safety, the excellent cirriculum, the religious training are all part of what makes this a great school. The teachers are priceless! This is a place that students and parents are valued. I have always been happy that we sent our student to this wonderful school. 'We walk with Jesus' is their motto and it is followed.
My child is in the K-5 program and is leaps and bounds above children in our local public school system. The curriculum is challenging almost to a fault. One of the most impressive aspects of St. Mary's is the amount of parental participation. If you do not wish to be deeply involved in your child's education then St. Mary's is definitely not for you.
My children all started their elementary education in the safety of St. Mary. The majority of the teachers are truly gifted and able to motivate all students to flourish in his or her own way. Being a military family my children will continue to move around the world. St Mary prepared them to move from a very lax state academically to a very regimented state. With the exception of math the school is excellent academically. That being said my child moved from Adavanced Math at St Mary directly to Advanced Math at the new school and will therefore move directly into Geometry as a H.S. Freshman. The school has many sports, Academic Team, Scouting, and Middle School Exploratory. The school is very open to and supportive of volunteers, once they have undergone a background check. The parking lot communication is positive for the most part.
My son started K-5 this yr and i am very impressed the the small classrooms and how the teachers really do care.
