Mission Statement
St. Mary’s School exists to prepare children spiritually, morally, and academically for the future. Since the Extended Day Program is an extension of the school, this is the goal of the program. It is for students who can’t be picked up at the time of dismissal and offers supervision, direction, and academic support for these students.
Supervision

this program communicate with the classroom teachers if necessary.
