What do you value?

A Letter from our Principle

What do you value? We all value our children of course, and want a quality, academically excellent education for them. In this ever-changing world, many also see the true worth of our Catholic values, and how important it is to instill them in our young people from a young age. St. Mary School is a place where Catholic values shape tomorrow’s leaders.

When you choose St. Mary School Swormville, you’re not just choosing an excellent Catholic School that offers a superior education, and a wide variety of sports and extra-curricular activities, you’re joining a family! Our values of Faith, Family, Knowledge, Service & Tradition resonate through all that we do – from rigorous academics in the classroom and good sportsmanship on the athletic field, to reverence at weekly school Mass and commitment to service projects in the community – St. Mary School graduates excel in high school and beyond. We challenge students to reach their full potential, test their limits, and maximize their talents.

I would like to personally invite you to attend one of our enrollment events this January to see for yourself why we’re more than just a school.

LEAD Night: Thursday, January 16th, 2025, from 5:30 - 6:30 pm. Lower Elementary Academic Discovery Night is for children entering grades K - 2 this fall.
