In the spirit of the Daughters of the Charity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Welcome to St. Mary's website.
Those of you who may be joining us soon will find here the necessary information and forms. You are invited to email, call, or visit us. We believe that once you experience St. Mary's, you will want for your children all that we offer.
St. Mary's currently offers kindergarten through sixth grade, as well as universal pre-K. Our after-school programs include music, ballet, Tai Kwan Do, and basketball. Also, we have after-school care until 5:30 p.m. for students. School bus service is provided in conjunction with Clinton County schools.
You can now see some of our students, teachers, and activities in our video. Also, an avi version is available for download from the viewing page.
Note: The entrance to the school is not on State Route 9 (Main St.). Enter off of Pine St, to the parking lot around the back of the school. Click here to see a map.

Our mission is to educate children both academically and spiritually in the Catholic Christian tradition. In a warm family environment in which faculty and staff model "teaching as Jesus did," each child is nurtured to reach his or her God-given potential and to live out Gospel values in one global family.

Our History
When St. Mary's Academy was founded in 1906 by the Daughters of the Charity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus at the invitation of the pastor, Rev. Francois Xavier Chagnon, it was the third effort to establish a Catholic school in Champlain. The first school opened in 1860 and lasted four years. The second opened in 1877 and lasted 27 years. St. Mary's recently celebrated its 100th year.
