The School of Saint Mary is a private, fully accredited school serving Pre-K through eight grade located just east of Brookside. Affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church of Saint Mary, the school currently has a student body of 335 students with a 15:1 student-teacher ratio. Students are eligible to apply for admission as long as they are five years old before Sept. 1 of that school year. The school was started in 1954 by the Order of the Felician Sisters. The first version of the school was completed in 1957, consisting of a two-story building with nine classrooms. By 1960, Saint Mary had their first ever eighth grade graduation. Today the school contains offices, a church, preschool, a kindergarten center, library, music room, and media center. The outside of the school is modern and surrounded by nice trees and greenery, with outdoor space for children to play. In addition to a focus on academic excellence, The School of Saint Mary provides art, music, and physical education along with foreign language and after-school programs.

The Saint Mary student body routinely ranks at or above the 95th percentile nationally in math, science, reading, language arts, and social studies.
