Why I Thank
St. Mary Alumni

The alumni of St. Mary High School are an essential part of keeping our institution moving forward.  Without their time, talent and treasure, many of the things that make St. Mary High School so successful would not be possible.

“I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the St Mary’s Alumni Association for their continued support and generosity in helping prospective students like myself become a thriving part of the Gael community. It has given me and countless others an opportunity to pursue a faith based education in an environment that has inspired me to reach for my goals and excel in my future endeavors. I am currently enrolled in honors classes and strive to maintain this position throughout my high school journey while being an active volunteer in my town by helping the seniors, veterans and families in need of assistance.

Being the daughter of two SMS graduates, I feel honored to represent them as a legacy student and hope to inspire others to become future alumni leaders. Thank you for your tremendous role in shaping my future.”

I would like to express my gratitude to the Saint Mary Alumni for their selfless contributions for the betterment of our school. After only one year at Saint Mary, I have witnessed firsthand the tight knit and close community this school has to offer. Because of the support of the alumni, I have been given the opportunity to play Soccer and Basketball for the Gaels. The assistance provided by the Alumni has helped my classmates and I to continue our education in a comfortable and welcoming environment. I am excited to continue my academic and athletic career at Saint Mary, and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for me. Thank you once again for your continuous support and generosity.

I would like to thank the Alumni for all that they have done for my academic career at Saint Mary High School. I am so thankful for the opportunity to attend a school that not only challenges me academically but also enriches my Catholic faith. It is thanks to the Alumni that I have been able to flourish here as a student. Over the past four years, I have been able to become a part of the National Honor Society and Spanish Honor Society, as well as being the Vice President of the Key Club, a Student Ambassador, and participating in the Drama Club. Additionally, I have learned so many valuable lessons, made memories that I will never forget, and made friends that will last a lifetime. The generosity of the Alumni has inspired me to push myself to do my absolute best on all of my assignments and extracurriculars, and I strive to give back to the school as they have. Thank you again to the Saint Mary High School Alumni for all that they have done for our community.

I am beyond grateful to the Alumni of St. Mary High School for their generous contribution to enhance my academic career. As I entered St. Mary’s I didn’t know how much support and opportunities I’ll get, but thanks to you, I was able to have an opportunity to finish my past two years with First Honors and getting extra help by my teachers as I do sports. I have excelled as a student thanks to my teachers and faculty who have helped me along the way. Your generosity has helped me to motivate others and to give back to the community. I thank the St. Mary Alumni for pushing me to be the better version of myself. Once again, I truly thank all of the Alumni for the support.

I want to take a moment to express my gratitude to the Alumni of St. Mary. As a Sophomore, I’ve been able to witness the impact the alumni association has had on our school and my educational career so far. Thanks to your association I have the opportunity to work with great faculty and staff and prepare myself for what the future may hold. I was also able to join the Red Cross Association club and was recently elected to be a part of the Student Ambassadors. All of this could have not been done without your efforts for our school. I would also like to thank the association for their constant support at all our school-sponsored events and games. Without the St. Mary Alumni Association, we would not be where we are today.
