Saint Mary's School

What an amazing school experience for my twin daughters and our family! In addition to helping our girls academically succeed and be prepared for college, the school also centers core teaching and learning on developing social skills, nurturing their spiritual life, and provided numerous leadership opportunities. When they graduated, both were accepted to MULTIPLE colleges and universities, and they are better prepared than others in their peer group who did not go to an all-girls' school. We watched as our girls discovered who they wanted to become as individuals, as school leaders, and how core competencies they developed will be used in college and later in their professional careers. Our daughters were boarding students who had the "full" Saint Mary's experience; they felt safe and nurtured as part of a campus community. We are thrilled with the result. We highly recommend Saint Mary's School! #GoSaints!

My daughter graduated from SMS with honors. My wife and I chose SMS to give her an empowering all-girls experience and she received that and more. She was a day student and enrolled as a sophomore later in the academic year. Not only did the faculty and staff make her feel welcome, but the students were also so welcoming and supportive that it blew our minds. She was partnered with a "sister Saint" who helped her navigate those first weeks, and soon she was joining clubs and organizations. In her junior year, she joined several extracurricular opportunities (theatre, dance) and thrived. She took on leadership positions and then tried seasonal boarding during the time frame she was part of the theatre cast for a performance in the spring. It helped her balance her academic load, which is challenging, with her need for social and personal growth. We can honestly say that Saint Mary's was the best thing that happened for our daughter and we watched her blossom. She's now a sophomore in college, had absolutely no issues transitioning, and has found the academic rigor on par with her high school, as they prepared her for college just as they said they would. She's outgoing, fun-loving, dedicated, and smart, and we are proud of the work she did at SMS and is now in her college today. We recommend Saint Mary's to everyone in our church and at work if they have daughters around 7th or 8th grade and tell them to go look and then send them for high school. They will never regret the investment. We are so glad we invested in our daughter's future. Thank you, Saint Mary's School!
