It is a blessing to be a part of the St. Mary's Academy community. Everyone who is here on a daily basis finds a place where they belong. Everyone makes an effort to ensure that, when you are here, you feel a sense of welcome and belonging from students to faculty to staff; we are all in this together. When you are here, you are seen; you are valued; and you are heard.

We love and appreciate SMA's dedication to the spiritual and educational development of the young women who attend SMA. This is accomplished through the dedication of the excellent teachers, administration and parent support. We believe many of the SMA Belles will go on to accomplish great things in their lives, from their attendance at SMA and from the life- long friends they make. Our world needs these young women who can be its future leaders.
