Our School exists as a vital part of St. Mary's Parish
ministry to support parents in the education of their children.
As a school we strive to encourage our students to grow spiritually;
to develop a life long love of learning and to strive to achieve
their highest personal and academic potential.

In living out the philosophy of St. Mary’s/St. Rose's School, the faculty/staff strive to help the children grow in love and respect for themselves, others and God.

We strive to do this by: 
Providing times of prayer, religious teaching and nurturing of the child’s spirituality daily 
Having weekly liturgy and other prayer experiences which are participated in and developed by the students and teachers 
Encouraging positive self-imaging
Providing for a positive, loving Christian environment
Helping students deal with their feelings

We provide a consistent academic program of basic skills enhanced by the fine arts and physical education. In our academic program we strive to:

Foster respect for the uniqueness of each person
Provide a challenge for every individual at his/her learning level with opportunity for success 
Encourage each student to think for himself/herself
Create a trusting, happy atmosphere where students feel free to take risks
Provide exposure to diversity of people, experiences and concepts
