Aruba, Jamaica, ooh, I wanna take you to.... Brazil, Hawaii, Cape Cod, Cuba, Canada, Costa Rica, New York City, & Maine! Students in grade 5 enjoyed researching locations in the Western Hemisphere for Social Studies recently, then they created travel brochures for their destination. This project sure has us itching to pack a bag and get away for awhile!

October is the month of the Holy Rosary! Throughout the month, students have been learning about, practicing, & praying the Rosary. Some of our younger classes got to follow along with crayons- coloring a bead with each prayer.

The St. Greg's/St. Mary's combined JV baseball team ended their season and playoff hopes today in a heartbreaking, extra innings 8-7 defeat at Shoshone Park against St. Ben's. The game was tied at 7 in the top of the seventh when St. Ben's singled, scoring 1 run.

A triple by Christian F gave the JV boys the lead, 3-2, in the bottom of the third, & they scored two runs in the bottom of the fourth on a home run to center field by Will K. Christian also tripled to center field, which helped the boys tie the game at six in the bottom of the fifth. Christopher M homered to left field, which tied the game at seven in the bottom of the sixth.

Overall, the team had a strong eye at the plate, amassing six walks for the game. They also turned one double play in the field.

Congratulations boys on a great season, everyone gave it their all today and should be proud of their play & attitude!

The Class of 2026 took part in another special SMS tradition this week; the distribution of the 8th grade hoodies! It has been a tradition for quite some time at St. Mary School that 8th graders are allowed to wear their class sweatshirts regularly to school. The sweatshirt backs feature their graduation year, as well as each classmate's signature. Mrs. D'Angelo and Mr. Kosmowski handed out the sweatshirts at the end of school Mass, and Father Tom took the opportunity to bless our 8th graders while wearing their hoodies.
