Principal Message

Welcome to St. Mary Catholic School at Blessed Trinity Parish
where children learn and grow in a Christ-centered caring community.

At St. Mary Catholic School our pastor, teachers and school staff members as well as our school parents and parishioners provide our students with strong support and encouragement in a God centered, nurturing and safe environment.

We are committed to working with parents to offer a quality education and to help all students achieve optimal spiritual, academic, physical and social potential. All students beginning at age three through Grade 8 learn in small multi-grade classes that allow teachers to meet their individual needs, and to focus on instruction rather than spend a great deal of time on student behavior and discipline.

The benefits of these reduced class sizes also last throughout a student’s educational career.  Research shows that children who have had the benefit of small classes, particularly in Grades K-3, outperform others through high school, have higher graduation rates, higher grade point averages, and a greater likelihood of attending college.

St. Mary’s School benefits greatly from the financial and prayer support of the parish as a whole, and we are very appreciative of the time and talent given by parents and others who are involved in school projects and activities with/for our students and staff.

We invite you to arrange a visit to see the fine instructional programs that take place on a daily basis in our school and we encourage you to view this website to learn about the programs and opportunities our school offers.

At the present time there are some openings at some grade levels. If you are interested in knowing more about St. Mary Catholic School, please call (920-467-6291) or send an e-mail.  We can arrange a time to talk or a time for you to visit. We’d love to have you and you child/ren join our St. Mary Catholic School Family!

Thank you for visiting our website.

Pastor's Message

Saint Mary’s School is a blessing to Blessed Trinity parish.

The students, teachers, staff and administrators are all dedicated to the principle of building a family of faith through quality Catholic Christian education. It has been demonstrated time and time again that Saint Mary students are leaders and genuinely good persons when they leave our school. That is because of the fine learning experiences and formation in faith they receive from our exemplary teachers and staff.

It is also because of the support and active involvement of the parents who choose to send their children to Saint Mary’s. These parents dedicate additional dollars to the education of their children. Equally important, they dedicate many hours of volunteer work and fund-raising efforts to do their part to keep the school within our parish budget. Most importantly, they provide a Christian atmosphere in their homes; that is what truly nurtures the seeds planted in the children’s lives by their Catholic education.

Welcome to Saint Mary’s School Website! I hope you use this tool to investigate the benefits an education at Saint Mary’s school can provide for the child/children you love. Perhaps we’ll have the chance to meet them soon and include them among the blessings we call the students of Saint Mary’s.

Peace - Father Bob Lotz, Pastor
