We are proud of our Catholic School and proud to be able to share
Jesus’s teachings with our young children. We are an important part
of St. Mary of the Assumption Parish and the Diocese of Syracuse.
For over 63 years, St. Mary’s Academy has continued the tradition
of providing academic excellence in a Catholic, faith filled
community.Accredited by the Middle States Association, our school
educates students that consistently demonstrate superior academic
achievement as evidenced by our students’ above-average scores on
New York State Standardized tests. Our teachers all are New York
State certified and hold advanced degrees in education. We also
have a New York State certified special education teacher on staff
to provide academic support in reading and mathematics.
Speech/language services are also provided through the
Baldwinsville School District, if warranted.In addition to our
strong academic program, we offer music, art, physical education,
chorus, technology and library education. Some of our
extra-curricular activities include band, basketball, art club,
Drug Quiz team, technology code club, karate, and dance for our
younger students.Our school day is enriched with Gospel values in
every class. Jesus is the focus of all that we do. We have a
character education program and a different virtue is emphasized
each month. We engage in many community service projects and the
first Friday of each month we celebrate Mass as a school community.
We gather as a school community each Monday for prayer. This helps
our students live a faith-filled life as disciples of Jesus.St.
Mary’s Academy is committed to academic excellence, faith formation
and service to others. We look forward to having you become part of
our St. Mary’s Academy family because “we are large enough to offer
your children a world of opportunity, but small enough to do it
right.” Follow us on Twitter, Facebook and our website at
www.smabville.org. We also have a mobile app through Glyph Mobile.
At last we have a dedicated phone number for suicide and crisis support. The Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is 988. More about it and suicide prevention here.
Seemingly never-ending school shootings prompted me to find out whether private schools were safer than public schools. Some answers and opinions on the matter here.
