Mary School is a Catholic school educating children starting in our 4-year-old Kinder program through 8th grade. Established in September 1871, we are accredited by WASC and WCEA and follow the Diocese of San Jose and State of California education directives. Mary School, in active partnership with families, is to provide a quality academic education, while fostering a welcoming community of faith
. Our strong academic program prepares each student to be an active learner, a person of faith, and a responsible citizen. In 2016, 100% of our 8th-grade graduates were accepted to their first choice of Catholic or private high schools. Our outstanding junior high science program with a lab is a strong preparation for high school science, lead by an award-winning instructor. Teachers use extensive technology in the classrooms to enhance their instruction, and use of iPads or Chromebooks is provided for each student in 1st-8th grades. Extended care is offered before and after school with a homework club during after-school care. Mary School has a robust after-school sports program for boys and girls in 5th-8th grades. Additional programs for students include music, band, art, Spanish enrichment, speech and debate, chess, and community service. Tuition assistance is available.
