Comments: St. Mary's is the seventh largest girls' school in the United States. It's been around since 1842. Lest you think SMS is merely a very lovely finishing school for young ladies from the south, think on. St. Mary's is alive with initiatives on just about every front you can imagine - technology, the arts, and, of course, the teaching. St. Mary's MAP or My Achievement Plan is a fine example of how to develop the full potential each St. Mary's student has.
