I have attended Saint Mary's Catholic High School for all 4 years of my high school journey. The teachers have helped me grow not only in my education, but also in my relationships with others, including God. The application process was very easy to go through and the people in the Administrations office have always been very nice and helpful to newcomers. The teachers and guidance councilors really want to help you do your best in academics to keep you on track for your careers. The Student Council make highschool a great experience by having fun and crazy assemblies through out the year.
Saint Mary's is all about tradition. It's now 100 years since it opened in 1917 and the school has never been more proud. We follow tradition because we know it's the main source of a strong liberal school. The teachers strive us to become young virtuous men and women. Through our strong academics we are preparing ourselves for God's plan he has for us. Saint Mary's provides a strong family background whether it be alumni or people who donate money to our school. Our homecoming game we had Alumni from the class of 1967 come and support the Knights. Saint Mary's is also hosting our Centennial Gala. Alumni, teachers, staff and donators will be attending and fundraising for our school. Teachers, family, and students are the main source for our strong virtuous campus.
