We believe that man is made in the image and likeness of God Himself. All persons have been endowed with unique gifts found within themselves. They are to be used for the service of all. Assisting each of our students in the gradual unfolding of their potentials to the maximum, is the task of St.Mary's Educators. As a Community of Educators, we believe this maximum unfolding can be real only by becoming persons of loving service throughout our whole adult life.

St.Mary's believes its aim to be the development in our students of the ability to critically choose what is best. The process of learning is therefore of primary importance. Learning "How to Learn" and an appreciation for continued learning are imperatives of our times. Respect for appreciation of personhood rests as the foundation of our educational mission.
