Saint Mary School, Palmdale

Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing, hard-working moms who help our school community thrive!

TK and Kinder students had a wonderful experience during their in-school field trip this week, which featured a petting zoo and a bouncy house. We are grateful to our school's PTO for providing funds through various fundraisers, making this experience a reality!

Saint Mary School is now accepting applications for new students entering TK through 8th grade. Join our school community and see the difference a Catholic education makes. Visit our school website for more information: https://www.stmaryspalmdale.org/

It was a beautiful day for Kinder to create St. Patrick's Day artwork with their buddy class. Students love sharing these special moments and activities.

March has been busy in TK. Students celebrated Read Across America with numerous activities, including Pajama Day, dressing as their favorite book character, and even trying Green Eggs and Ham! St. Patrick's Day was also full of fun learning activities and a pot of gold for all to enjoy.

Kindergarteners kicked off Read Across America Week with a visit to the library to choose books and read with their 8th-grade buddy class. Kindergartners then made "hat towers" after reading The Cat in the Hat. It was a fun day in Kinder!

We started Lent last week with Ash Wednesday Mass and prayer services. Our students and staff received ashes as a visible symbol of repentance, mortality, and humility before God. Later in the week, teachers attended the annual Religious Education Congress to deepen their faith and better support our students. We are grateful to be part of our students' faith development journey.

Get ready - the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! Find bestselling series and characters that students love from more than 100 publishers. Not only does the fair promote reading, but it also helps St. Mary's since every purchase benefits our school.
