St. Mary Immaculate Conception

My two children have attended St Mary School in Wooster for three years. We transferred to St Mary after being disappointed in the Wooster public schools. St. Mary is a wonderful school. It offers Preschool through 8th. St Mary is a warm, safe and nurturing environment. Their motto is "Growing in Character, Faith and Knowledge" and they deliver. Solid curriculum, and a staff of caring, dynamic and dedicated teachers that set standards, and help the kids reach them. St Mary standardized test scores are consistently way above those of the public schools. St Mary has a great science curriculum - WAY better than the public schools. Example: My 7th grader was experimenting with DNA last week! Their Spanish language program is taught by a native speaker. They have great, high-energy music teacher, and a band program. And while it is a Catholic school, the student body is diverse, and the school is as open and welcoming to non-Catholics. Busing is available. Great after-school ("LatchKey") program, too. And they have a tuition assistance.

St. Mary's fosters a family oriented environment, focused on academic excellence. The focus on accountability and positive character is invaluable. Every teacher cares about each child and their success. They get a GREAT education!!!

We have had a fabulous experience at St Mary's. The faculty, parents and clergy are upbeat and involved. The discipline is strict, but fair. The focus on classwork (Spanish, Science, Phonics etc) has been positive, and the spiritual content in everyday life has been very meaningful to my son.
