One of Mary Star's slogans is small size, large opportunities and certainly lives up to it. A full range of AP courses, guaranteed starts on sports teams and 6 full-time priests on the faculty are just some of the features that make Mary Star a great school. The school was selected as one of only 50 schools on the Catholic School Honor Roll for the entire US. Add to these offerings a dedicated faculty, a 27-acre, new campus, an on-campus rocket club, a functioning Roman catapult, and daily 7:10 am mass and you have got Mary Star--a 500 student campus where teachers know you by name. No wonder my child would not consider going anywhere else for high school!
The teachers really care about me. The principal knows us all by name. The kids treat each other well. Classes are hard but good.
As a former teacher at the school, it is run strictly as a business with no regard for providing a top notch education or athletic program. Students are not prepared for University level work as many go on to JC's or work in the shipping industry. Very close knit community that does not embrace outsiders. Administration is full of hypocrisy. The school itself is a safe environment.
