Principal's Welcome

Welcome to St. Mary’s Visitation School. We are a welcoming and dynamic community that provides an exceptional education in a faith-filled environment. We are committed to the development of the whole child: intellectually, spiritually, socially, and physically.

Essential to our day to day ministry is our school’s mission: St. Mary’s Visitation Catholic parish school exists to direct children toward God and toward Christian service to society through Catholic religious formation, academic challenge, and continuous improvement. We hold up Christ as the example for our students and teachers. As the plaque outside our door proclaims, He is “the reason for this school, the unseen but ever-present teacher in all its classes, the model of its faculty, and the inspiration for its students.”

Our theme for this school year is “Encourage one another and build each other up.” 1 Thessalonians 5:11. There is no greater message that brings us together and reminds us of our commitment to one another as children of God. The experiences of faith and service help our students develop a love for God and an appreciation for the value of others.
For over 150 years St. Mary’s Visitation has been graduating students of great integrity and well-developed talents. Our faith life is rich in prayer and service to others. Browse our website to get a glimpse of who we are. Better yet, stop by and see us in person!  I look forward to meeting you!

Yours in Christ.
