We offer a well-rounded education at the elementary school level for grades K through 8. Grades K through 2 are self-contained. Departmentalization begins gradually at grade 3 and increases by grade 5. Maximum class size is 30 students for grades 1-8. Kindergarten classes are full day.
Preschool and Pre-K will be offered in fall of 2012. Information is on our parish and school website as it becomes available.
Our school’s religious program is a part of Immaculate Heart of Mary’s Catholic Formation Program and adheres to the mission, mandates and policies of the parish and the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.
The curriculum follows the Graded Course of Study of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. The integrated curriculum is based on the gospel values of Jesus Christ and current educational practices that include activities suited to a variety of learning styles. Academic programs and extracurricular activities are structured to help each student be successful. Our program provides opportunities for the student to grow in personal awareness of God, self and others. In addition to regular classes taught by certified religion teachers, there are opportunities for prayer, para-liturgical services, and regular participation in weekday liturgies.

Our faculty members are consummate learners. They attend professional development that addresses the needs of our students; they have become teacher leaders, encouraging and supporting their peers in their efforts to be better teachers, and they are peer trainers, presenting their knowledge and successes at local, regional, and national conferences. (Our faculty has presented at the National Blue Ribbon Conference, Ohio Catholic Education Conference, Ohio Council of Teachers of Math and the National Council for History Education).
To provide a safe learning environment for our students the campus buildings remain locked with access gained through a security door to the main lobby. Security cameras are used and volunteers are required to wear badges that identify them as passing the Archdiocesan requirements for all volunteers.
The National Catholic Educational Association Department of Elementary Schools honored our Immaculate Heart of Mary School PTO in Atlanta, Georgia at their NCEA Annual Convention. Our PTO received this recognition for their mosaic project, which can be viewed in the lobby of our school.
