The "St. Mary's Way"is multi-fold but it encompasses a firm commitment to the spiritual development of our students toward a life of prayer, service, love, personal virtue, and academic excellence. -
Words to students from the Principal
-
We can teach all kinds of wonderful stuff to you, and we can answer most of your questions, but we cannot learn it for you. The students who do the best in high school, college, and life in general are the ones who find a way to stay curious and focus on becoming excellent learners. That is the only route to becoming the best version of yourself. You know something is true and beautiful when YOU YOURSELF (not just other people) understand it. Knowledge demands an investment of your thinking in order to behold its wonder. But it's worth it, and infinitely better than the version of school that is just memorizing stuff. What do we look for in a student? The same thing most employers look for in employees: creativity, curiosity, commitment, collaboration, compassion, and most of all competence - know your stuff. That means working hard and memorizing the important and basic facts.
