We partner with families to form confident learners and faithful leaders, guiding students from Preschool through 8th grade in a Christ-centered environment.
We welcome new families to explore our programs and begin the enrollment process below.
Step one: Apply for Enrollment
Parents seeking to enroll their child(ren) at St. Mary’s School must complete the online admission forms through our Parent Portal. If classrooms are at capacity in the grade level requested, the order of acceptance is as follows:

- Children of non-parishioners with siblings currently enrolled (tuition payments must be current).
- Children of active, worshiping, and contributing parishioners not currently enrolled.
- Children of non-parishioners not currently enrolled.
All new students are accepted on a probationary basis pending receipt and review of required records. At the time of admission, parents/guardians agree to accept the policies, rules, and regulations of St. Mary’s School.
