 At St. Mary’s, we offer  a rich and balanced education that blends strong academics—literacy, numeracy, science, social studies, the arts, and French—with a deep commitment to Catholic values. Our partnership with the Northern Huron-Perth Catholic Family of Parishes, Father Joseph, and Deacon Waechter keeps faith at the center of everything we do—through prayer, school Masses, sacramental preparation, and service rooted in Gospel values. Students are encouraged to explore the world with curiosity, gratitude, and responsibility. Jesus summed up the commandments simply: love God and love your neighbor. That’s the heart of what we want our children to learn—that they are loved by God and called to share that love with others.

 The of St. Mary’s Catholic school is very grateful to be on this learning journey with you and your children. At the heart of our Catholic school is a shared mission: to help each child grow as a whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Your partnership is essential to this work, and we deeply value the trust you have placed in us. We invite parents and guardians to become actively involved in the life of our school by joining the Catholic School Advisory Council (CSAC). Membership provides an excellent opportunity to participate in discussions that help shape the direction of our school and to contribute to initiatives that support student achievement and well-being. Your voice matters, and your involvement makes a difference.

Our dedicated, passionate and compassionate staff are here to support your children—and your family—on every step of their learning journey. 

The door is always open. La porte est toujours ouverte.
