Welcome! St. Mary’s Catholic School was founded in 1898. The Redemptorist Fathers started the school as a mission of Holy Cross Catholic Church to provide a quality PreK3 – 8th grade education to the children of St. Croix. Through small class size, family orientation, and a strong back-to-basics approach to education, we develop the whole child, promote academic excellence, and live out the gospel message of Jesus. As a result, our students leave St. Mary’s with a solid foundation in academics, highly motivated to continue their learning, and with a strong grounding in Catholic principles and values.
