Rating 3.89 out of 5 92 reviews
I have loved my time at Mary Star High School! Mary Star allows students to focus more on just academics or athletics, but nurtures the entire person. Mary Star High School has helped to prepare me for a 4 year college, while helping me develop my faith, athletic ability, leadership skills and much more. At Mary Star, a student can focus on academics, participate in multiple varsity sports, join many special interest clubs and practice their faith. The Administrators and teachers are so friendly, and do so much in order to make sure their students succeed, even offering tutoring an hour after school everyday. Mary Star High School is welcoming to every person.
I attended Mary Star for four years and absolutely loved it. All of the teachers and staff there care so much about their students. Teachers take time out of their day to help students with tutoring, homework, and even help them catch up on missing assignments. If you’re looking for a school to send your child or children this is definitely the one. Mary Star of The Sea High School is more than a school, it’s a home. Everyone who attends Mary Star is kind, loving, and caring. All students treat each other with respect and no bullying is ever tolerated. I loved Mary Star because it felt like another home to me. Even when my close friends weren’t at school, other students would make my day the greatest. The principal helps students with uniform, homework, and personal home problems. The school helps out their students in so many unexplainable ways the staff and teachers there are truly a blessing and to attend such a rigorous school is God’s gift.
Mary Star of the Sea high school is the best. I especially enjoy the staff, in particular Mr. Ibarra, the librarian. He is always cheerful and happy whenever I see him!
