St. Mary Parish School, founded by the School Sisters of St. Francis, held its first classes on September 8, 1954. Currently, 472 students are enrolled in grades 3K - 8th. The school's mission statement is: Celebrating spiritual growth while providing academic excellence in a Christ-centered environment".〔(St. Mary Parish ),"General Information." St. Mary Parish School. N.p., n.d. Web. 7 Mar. 2014.〕 == History == After raising $150,000 in pledges, construction of St. Mary's first school began in February of 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.〔(St. Mary Parish ), "St. Mary History - The 1900'S."
