About Our School
Our Mission & Vision
Who we are, where we're going, and why families stay for years — sometimes for generations.
Our Mission
St. Mary Catholic School is rooted in Catholic values and academic excellence. We are committed to providing an environment rich in diversity, inclusion and belonging, where children of God learn, love and live the faith.
Faith, lived out
What this looks like on an ordinary day
Learn
Hands-on learning with a teacher close by — curious, unhurried, and full of conversation.
Grow
Time outside to explore, wonder, and look after God's creation together.
Our Vision
St. Mary Catholic School will grow — in both reach and roots — becoming a thriving school from early childhood through middle school, where every child is known by name and formed in faith, mind, and character to lead and serve in the light of Christ.
Faith, mind, and character
Three promises to your family
The vision is only real if it shows up in your child's day. Here's how it does.
Formed in faith
Prayer, Mass, and the sacraments are part of an ordinary week — not an add-on. Children learn that they are loved by God and called to love others the same way.
Formed in mind
Small classes, high expectations, and teachers who know each child by name. Strong academics from 3K through middle school, with support along the way.
Formed in character
Kindness, service, and responsibility practiced daily — at school, at home, and out in our community. Faith that shows up in how children treat one another.
Reach and roots
A school that stays close while it grows
Known by name
Small classes where every child is seen, heard, and challenged at their own pace.
Rooted early
From the youngest learners, we build a love of reading, of questions, and of one another.
Growing in reach
Two campuses, one school family — childcare through middle school, right here in Dodge County.
Hands on, minds busy
A science lesson that starts as a little magic — and ends with twelve children asking to do it again.
Together in spirit
Spirit days, reading buddies, and classroom guests — the ordinary joy that makes a school feel like family.
Learning by doing
Measuring, stirring, and waiting — a lesson in patience that ends with something to share.
Come see it for yourself
The mission makes more sense in person.
Walk the halls, peek into classrooms, and ask us anything. Tours are relaxed, personal, and built around your family.
