I had no idea when we selected Saint Mary Preschool for my eldest that SMS would become such a huge part of the lives of every member in my family. From school to volunteer work, SMS was our school, our friends, our community. Both my children attended from Preschool through 8th Grade. As hoped, they learned the basics that helped them attain success in high school and college, but they also learned things that you can’t grade or put in a transcript. Their faith is deeply rooted in who they are, both chose to go to Catholic Universities because that felt right. Service is just something they expect to do in their lives. They are both intensely loyal to the kids they met at SMS and still consider them their closest friends. I couldn’t be prouder of my children or more thankful that they had SMS to help shape their lives! (Mom of 2 Alumni)
