Hello Families: Exciting things are happening at St. Mary of the Hills School! The CYO basketball league is underway and the boys have been practicing hard with Coach A. Band and piano lessons have begun and our cheerleading team will begin next week. We will be offering many more activities soon. 

Dear Parents and Guardians: This week we had our first field trip of the year. Kindergarten, First and Second grades visited Ward Berry Farm. It was a great opportunity for fun and learning. Thank you to all of the parents and guardians who volunteered to chaperone. Usually, each grade has at least one field trip, so look forward to many other classes going on field trips for fun and learning outside of the classroom.

Dear Parents and Guardians: Fall is a wonderful time of year. It's a time to recognize the change of seasons, enjoy the chill in the air, and all of the fun fall activities we have planned for our school community. It is a time to enjoy the colorful leaves and all of the beauty God has created for us. 

Dear Parents and Guardians: It's hard to believe that we have already begun our second month of school. Our students have settled into their routines and have been working hard. On Thursday, all of our students joined Father Bennett outside for the Blessing of the Animals. Many children brought a photo of their special pet to be blessed, and there were a few pets that visited school today, including my dog, Gidget. A special thank you to Father Bennett for taking the time to spend with the children and animals on this special day. We ended our week with a beautiful Mass hosted by the 7th- grade class. A special thank you to the 7th -grade students and Mrs. McNally for preparing the students so well.

Dear Parents and Guardians: Once again, I want to thank you for sending your children to St. Mary of the Hills School and entrusting us as your partner in their academic, spiritual, and social development. Just a reminder to all parents and guardians to please find the time to take a brief survey that was sent to each family to gather parent feedback. This survey will provide us important information on how to better serve our families.

Dear Parents and Guardians: It was wonderful to see so many parents and guardians at Back to School Night. It was an opportunity for you as parents to learn more about what will be taught throughout the school year and to tour the classrooms. Once again, I want to thank you for sending your children to St. Mary of the Hills School, and entrusting us as your partner in their academic, spiritual, and social development. A brief survey will be emailed to each family to gather parent feedback. We ask that you take the time to fill out the survey. This is important for us to learn how to better serve our families.

Dear Parents and Guardians: It's hard to believe that we have finished our second week of school. Grades K-3 finished MAPS testing and Grades -8 will finish next week. We are very proud of how well our students have settled into their new routines and have come to school prepared and ready to learn. Very soon we will be sharing with you the afterschool enrichment activities we have planned for our students this year.

Dear St. Mary of the Hills Families: We had a great start to the school year! There was a lot of learning new routines, a lot of reconnecting with old friends and lots of news friends. It was joyful to see all of our children back at school filling the classrooms and playground.
