St. Mary's Preschool

We are so proud of all of our preschool students, and we have loved watching how much they have grown and learned this year. 💙 Congratulations to our PreK 4 students who are moving onto kindergarten! We will miss you all! 🥹🎓

Our preschool students celebrated their love of learning last week with fun activities and dress-up in honor of the great children’s author, Dr. Seuss! 📚

Each day had a silly theme inspired by a Dr. Seuss book, with unique art projects and cheerful games, while learning to spell their names and working fine motor skills. ❤️🧡💛

With more than half the school year gone, our littlest St. Mary's attendees are beginning to show just how fast they are growing. 💚💙🩷

They have learned and adapted to so many new things, revealing what awesome, independent little people they are becoming. ☺️
Keep going, kiddos! 👏

Here at St. Mary's School Rockville, we know...

For 75 years, St. Mary's School mission has been to help each child grow by learning and practicing the virtues of the Catholic faith, with attention to the development of the whole child, including promoting a love of learning from a young age. Please consider us for your donations this year. 🎁

It's ! This holiday season, we hope that you will consider St. Mary’s School for your charitable donations.

For 75 years, we have continued to teach students the very same principles since the doors opened in 1951: 𝐅𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐡 + 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞 + 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞. While many families want their children in Catholic school, it is not a financial reality for some.

The St. Mary’s School Development Fund was established to help give as many children as possible the chance to receive a quality Catholic education. 𝟏𝟎𝟎% 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐠𝐨 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐭𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝.

“Wherever access to education remains a privilege, [we] must push open doors and invent new pathways because to ‘lose the poor’ is to lose the very meaning of the school ... To educate is an act of hope.”
