Education Enrichment

“Coming in 2009:  Accelerated Math, Battle of the Books, and Quiz Bowl”

At St. Mary's School, we believe that educating a child is more than just providing the basics. Each year, our Education Enrichment Committee arranges for enrichment programs to be brought to St. Mary's School. Enrichment programs are things such as activities with a NASA Astronomer and with the Cranbrook Institute of Arts. Committed parents have volunteered their time to bring the "First Move" Chess program for math enrichment. The "St. Mary's Piggy Bank," a school run bank, was founded this year with the assistance of Seaway Bank. Additional enrichment activities include, but are not limited to:

• Pro-Solve Math Program

• Accelerated Reader Program

• Eagle Village Leadership Camp

• Yearbook

• Forensic Interpretive Reading

• Learning Fair

• 8th Grade Trip to Washington D.C.

• 3rd Grade Trips to the State Capitol and the Rouge River Plant

• St. Clair County Science fair

• Academic Olympics

• Robotics

Additionally, each class from preschool through 8th grade participate in a variety of field trips planned by teachers to compliment their curriculum.
