The best part about Saint Mary's is that it is a place where one can feel safe to learn. In this world, some opinions are frowned upon. Here, we learn and will not be stopped. The worst thing about Saint Mary's is that there are some people there who do not care for the faith.

Great. The academics and the faith aspect go hand in hand really well. Whatever I learn in history has to do with what I'm learning in Theology. The only things that need work is we need new computers and AC IN THE GYM. PLEASE.

St. Mary's is a high school that is very focused on the community and makes the students feel like they are part of a family there. The teachers are committed to the students and always offer additional help if needed which makes learning very accessible and manageable. Overall St. Mary's has made me feel ready for college and will leave me with great memories moving forward.

There is behavior that is not conducive to a Christian conduct, and the discipline is nothing. I feel i...
