History
After raising $150,000 in pledges, construction of St. Mary's first school began in February 1953. The first school contained eight classrooms, a kitchen, and a hall. In addition, a convent was constructed to house the School Sisters of St. Francis who would be their first teachers. By 1960 an additional 10 classrooms were added.
About 1980, due to the decline in sisters, the convent was closed.
In 2012, three students competed in the Future City Engineering Competition and won the national title.
The school is successful due to the number of parents and community members who volunteer regularly.
