St. Mary's Academy

Information for Parents

Welcome Parents!

New student applications open March 1 and close May 25.

Parents must submit an online application for each of their new students through the FACTS Student Information System. Application fees are waived from March 1 through March 15.  Returning students do not need to submit an application.

  • For a new Academy family (one with no students enrolled in the Academy for the last two years), the first step is to create a FACTS Application Account. This account will provide a secure login in which to create and submit one or more student applications. After creating your account, click on the Application link (in the top navigation of that page) to login and submit student applications.
  • For an Academy family (one with current or recent students enrolled in the Academy), you don't need to create an application account. Just login to your FACTS account, and you will see a button near the bottom that says "Create a New Student Application". Click that to start a new application.
  • Review the 2025-2026 tuition rates and adjustments.

Please note the following:

  • Kindergarten students must be 5 years old by September 1 of the year of enrollment. Kindergarten is recommended but not required; a student may skip kindergarten and go directly into 1st grade.
  • Placement exams are required for all new 1st - 12th grade students to ascertain if the student is academically prepared for the grade they wish to enroll into. These tests are given in the late Spring and Summer before the new school year begins. Kindergarten students do not take placement exams.
  • All academic, standardized test, and behavioral records are required for new 1st - 12th grade students including any active IEPs. These records will be reviewed along with placement test results in considering the student's application.
  • All students, whether Catholic or not, are expected to submit to the full curriculum as offered: They must attend all religion classes and participate in all activities, especially the weekly student Mass. They must be of the Christian faith and be baptized.
  • If you are a new family moving to St. Marys and will be attending the Immaculata Church, please go to the parish office (located in the back of the church building) to register as a new family.
