St. Mary School, based in beautiful Bethel, CT, offers a faith
based education for children in grades PreK to 8th grade.
"Faith, Family, Academics" is the school motto, and can be
witnessed in every classroom. Small class sizes and
personalized learning are key to student success. A robust
academic curriculum ensures that students are well prepared for the
rigors of high school. Our PreK program, based in large beautiful
classrooms, is focused on social and emotional growth, with lots of
time for play and outdoor time, as well as one-on-one learning time
with our teachers. We offer after-school enrichment activities, as
well as a fully staffed after-care program. For more information,

Our daughter has been at St. Mary since kindergarten she is now in the 8th grade. Her 9 years at St.Mary have been amazing! There is a wonderful sense of family and community. The teachers and faculty are very caring and supportive. Although we are sad to see this chapter in her life coming to an end we are forever grateful for her time at St.Mary.

My child enrolled at St. Mary's School in the sixth grade and is currently in the eighth grade. His experience at the school has been extremely positive. St. Mary's School seamlessly combines strong academics with value-based education, and we're really pleased about it. The school leaders are dedicated and the teachers are both nurturing and motivating students to improve academically. The school's focus on faith, character, and community helps students become responsible and caring individuals.Beyond the classroom, St. Mary's offers a wide array of extracurricular activities, including sports, music/band, and afterschool clubs, among others. My son thoroughly enjoyed playing basketball for the junior varsity and varsity teams. Over the three years my child spent in middle school at St. Mary's, he not only gained strong academic knowledge but also developed into a responsible young individual, preparing him for a brighter future.We're truly grateful for this exceptional experience at St. Mary's. This school has set the bar high, and we couldn't be more pleased with our choice.
