St. Mary's School - Canandaigua, NY A PreK-6th Catholic School providing a high quality faith based education St. Gospel values,

2. high academic standards,

3.

Mary’s School exists, as a ministry of the Catholic Church, to be a learning environment, which stresses:

1. the fulfillment of individual needs and

4. the development of caring relationships. In working to make the subject matter relevant to the student in all curriculum areas, the teachers and staff stress academic excellence, guide each student’s personal growth and encourage them to develop

a sense of self. This enables students to reflect and grow from their own experiences and those of others. Students will be expected to take responsibility for their own actions and to make constructive changes in their own personal growth and development. Our focus at St. Mary’s School is to assist and motivate our school community to develop personal relationships with each other: students, faculty, parents, the parish and most importantly, with God. We extend our relationships with the community through our service to others. It is the development and nourishment of these caring relationships combined with strong academics at St. Mary’s Catholic School, which make us unique.

✨ Second Star to the Right and Straight On to Success! ✨

Congratulations to our talented St. Genesius Players on their wonderful production of Peter Pan! From the magical adventures in Neverland to the unforgettable performances, our students captivated audiences with their creativity, dedication, and enthusiasm.

We are so proud of every cast member, Mrs. Thorman, and Mrs. Baxter who helped bring this beloved story to life. Your hard work, teamwork, and commitment made this production truly special.

Thank you to everyone who joined us on this journey to Neverland and supported our young performers. The magic of theater is alive and well at St. Mary’s School!

🦋 Butterfly Release Day in PK! 🦋

As part of the Insect Unit, our Pre-K students learned all about the fascinating life cycle of a butterfly. They carefully observed and cared for caterpillars in the classroom, watching them transform through each stage of their journey. After weeks of learning and excitement, the special day finally arrived to release the butterflies into the world!

What an amazing hands-on experience that brought science to life and taught our students about growth, patience, and the wonders of God’s creation.

Our 4th–6th grade students had an amazing experience today at JA BizTown at the Kodak Center! Students stepped into real-world roles, worked together to run businesses, manage finances, make important decisions, and explore future careers.

It was incredible to see their teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills come to life outside the classroom. Experiences like these help prepare our students to become confident leaders and responsible citizens while having a lot of fun along the way!
