Immaculate Heart Of Mary School

Immaculate Heart of Mary School believes in the four-fold purpose of Catholic education: to teach Catholic doctrine and to proclaim Gospel values, to build a community, to worship, and to foster service.
We value the uniqueness of each child and strive to develop the total person spiritually, morally, intellectually, culturally, socially, physically, and psychologically.
Recognizing that the parents are the primary educators of their children with teachers as facilitators of the children's learning, we stress the partnership of family, school, and parish in building the faith community of Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Immaculate Heart of Mary School fosters a nurturing Catholic school community where children receive a strong spiritual and academic foundation based on Gospel values.
The IHM Children`s Choir competed at the Seventh World Choir Games in Cincinnati, Ohio in July of 2012. The World Choir Games, which was formerly known as the Choir Olympics, is the largest choir competition in the world and it was the first time that the United States participated in this event. In the April 2012 issue of St. Anthony Messenger, the widely circulated national magazine featured the IHM Children`s Choir on its front cover and centerfold. The students won two silver medals for the categories of Young Children's Choirs and Music of Religions. Recently, the students have competed and won various local competitions, such as the Acapella Festival. They have performed in Disney Land and some students were recorded for the soundtrack of the movie "The Book of Life." Furthermore, the choir sang for Pope Francis in Rome in December of 2015. They also sang at Carnegie Hall in New York in June of 2016. They sang in London and Canterbury in the Summer of 2019. They plan to continue to travel to more places in the future.
The future of learning is about access and sustainability with the aid of improved technology. Immaculate Heart of Mary has taken the next step and moved into this stage of learning. Blended learning is a student-centered structure, in which students are working in centers with technology as a tool to differentiate instruction. Based on standardized assessment data, IHM scores have been increasing each year, ensuring that all of our students are growing. Students have received more one-on-one attention and lessons are catered towards his or her individual need.
