St. Mary's Central High School is truly an amazing school all the way around. It is on the smaller side, however, that can be a good thing. It allows you to become closer to both your teachers and your peers. It is easy to tell that your teachers care about you. It is also a school that really allows and helps students to go deeper into their Catholic faith, something I will be forever grateful for.

I think the faith based approach definitely resonated with me. The teachers and administration are all very welcoming and helpful. They offer a wide variety of classes that allow all types of students to learn what they like and are good at before collage.

St. Mary's provided me with a good high school education. I was involved heavily in sports and was fortunate enough to go on and play at the college level. Bismarck ND is a lovely place to raise a family. I attended the old high school and was the in the last graduating class before they moved to a brand new facility. The new facility is amazing.
