Let's Have an Attitude of Gratitude this year!
This year we are in the YEAR OF FAITH. Our school has monthly virtues that help to develope characteristics from within that aid children in thier day to day interactions with peers and others around them. Every month we will focus on a different virtue and help the children to understand these sometimes confusing concepts! Thank you for your support and interest!
We aim to strengthen our SMCS culture of inclusion and acceptance of all and will continue efforts of kindness on campus each day. Videos, activities, and discussions centered on these efforts will be more prominent in the classrooms on a monthly basis. Ask your children what they've been doing to help promote a loving and inclusive culture at St. Mary School.
Any questions, ideas or if you want to participate see Mrs. Rice in the K3 room. Feel free to contact me at
