Academic excellence and Catholic identity are at the heart of
St. Mary Catholic School. Our curriculum is oriented to create an
individualized academic experience for each student.
Our faculty recognize that not every student has the same
academic and emotional needs. Through our inclusive education
mindset, we have the resources to support students with gifted
capabilities and students with special needs.
Our curriculum emphasizes the basic skills necessary for each
grade based on the State of Illinois and the Diocesan of Rockford
standards. The curriculum ensures rigor, a commitment to Catholic
education, and a prioritization of skills and standards.
Reading, English, math, spelling, science, social studies, and
foreign language are taught at all grade levels. Our math and
reading curriculums provide our students in grades K-8 the
opportunity to learn at an accelerated level or receive additional
academic assistance. Spanish is integrated into our kindergarten
through fifth-grade core curriculums taught three times a
week. Our sixth and seventh-grade students are also taught
Spanish weekly as a specials class, and our eighth-grade students
learn a year of French.

Our decision to have our children at St Mary's (Woodstock IL.) Was the best decision I have ever made. The school is Solid Catholic, Loving and always going the extra mile to serve with wisdom in mind, not to mention excellent academics. We Christians cannot offer to send our children to public schools- where they teach and encourage communism/ Marxist ideas. This school has a support program for those of low income like myself. My two little boys have never been so happy, making new friends and learning prayers, songs and much more.

Every parent wants the BEST for their child. Public vs private education can be a difficult choice in this economy.When my daughter was entering kindergarten I checked out ALL the options. I knew I wanted to start her education strong in order to establish a solid base for her future of learning. I wanted her to be in an environment that she would enjoy learning, get individual attention, be challenged, in a safe environment surrounded by friends and family with good character and strong morales. I am so thrilled to have chosen St Marys in Woodstock. It is everything I hoped for and more! This is not a government institution and is worth every dollar I invested and every sacrifice I have made to make this happen. Everyone involved including staff, families and children are OUTSTANDING!!! I have also enrolled my son in their pre-school program for all the same reasons. Thank you St. Marys!!!

I asked ChatGPT to list apps, YouTube Channels, and podcasts suitable for enriching the studies of students ages 10-14. (We'll look at resources for younger and older students in another article.)
AI (Artificial Intelligence), specifically ChatGPT, poses some serious challenges for teachers. We explore the importance of teaching students how to attribute the work and ideas of others.
