Welcome to St. Mary’s! We are blessed to learn and grow in the beautiful surroundings of Goderich, under the patronage of Mary, the Blessed Mother. Her spirit of service guides our staff and students daily as we work together to build a vibrant, Christ-centered community.
Our goal is simple: to create an environment where every child is challenged academically, athletically, artistically, and spiritually. Our dedicated staff strives to meet the needs of all learners through innovative teaching strategies, modern technology, and a focus on fostering a positive mindset in every student. From Grade 1 onward, families can choose between our dedicated English program and our specialized French Immersion track.
Our spiritual foundation is what truly sets us apart. Through classroom prayer, community Masses, and our partnership with the local parish, we help students find "encounters with God" in their everyday lives. We use the Ontario Catholic School Graduate Expectations as our compass, promising that every student will be supported in reaching their God-given potential.
It is a joy to lead this faithful community. To our parents, alumni, and friends: you are always welcome here. We invite you to experience the life of our school firsthand by volunteering, attending Mass, or connecting with us through social media. As we grow together in Christ, we deeply value your partnership and, most importantly, your prayers for our students and staff.
We look forward to a year of growth, learning, and faith.
In Christ,
Deb McCarthy
Principal
