St. Mary High School is a great school. It is not a big school, which for me is better. All the teachers know you by name. I came to St. Mary after my school, Immaculate Conception closed in June 2023. Coming to this school was a great decision.

St. Mary is small and personal. The teacher's know you personally and will make sure they keep on top of your work. I got to meet students from all over NJ with different backgrounds.

The school has a personal feel to it, just as their slogan states. Some teachers are very considerate and know when to intimidate students and when to help and encourage them. However, the school has many problems. Specifically how they allocate their funds. Many who attend feel as though the money spent is used on trivial things and not to fix major problems. Despite this, the students still succeed and find ways to have fun and thrive.

Current dean of discipline is lost and is clueless.I’m not sure if we will reopen for 22/23 school y...

This school used to have a great reputation and now that has dwindled. I am so upset because I do not feel like Saint Mary's gave me proper foundations for college; I do not feel prepared at all. The teacher turnover rate is atrocious and advising is even worse. Don't get me wrong there are teachers...
