Philosophy

As educators at St. Mary’s Primary School, we believe …

    • Christ is the focus of our school and integral to our everyday actions
    • education must foster and develop the whole child, spiritually, academically, emotionally and socially
    • the foundation for academic excellence requires clear expectations, structure, and high standards
    • each child is a unique individual, gifted by God with talents, abilities, and the right to learn
    • our school community has the right to a safe, secure environment, where everyone is treated with dignity and respect
    • our students learn in different ways, therefore a variety of activities must be incorporated to accommodate differences in learning styles
    • that parents are the primary educators of their children and we seek to supplement the witness of parents and their faith communities through the education of the child
