The faculty members, Religious Sisters, Brothers, and lay teachers, work together with parents for the education and formation of the youth entrusted to them.

Emphasis is on the fact that at IHM we do not raise children, but reinforce values already taught at home. Here, Religion is the basis of all education, with values that form the whole person, mind, body, and soul, in the Image of God.

An overview of the curriculum reveals that Theology class is the backbone of the academics. This is crucial in assisting students to attain their future goals, and makes students aware of their responsibilities to God, their family and society. The values inculcated there guide students to be good citizens, accountable for their actions, using their talents and skills to make positive changes in the world around them.

Other areas of the High School curriculum are standard, with four years of English, which covers grammar, writing, speaking, and reading of classical literature, Algebra I, II, and Geometry are taken for the first three years, and in the fourth year either Calculus or business math completes the study of math. Science is taken for three years and includes Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Two foreign languages are required; Latin (beginning in the seventh grade) and French. History covers western civilization, modern, and US history.

Musical ability is also developed. Approximately 80% of the student body in grades 7 through 12 join the marching band which participates and competes in at least ten parades a year, in addition to several concerts. Many students compete in district competitions and some students even continue music at the college level. Keyboarding, journalism, public speaking and physical education are also required.

Students are encouraged to become members of the National Honor Society which fosters academic excellence, leadership, character, and service. Student tutoring, visiting nursing homes, and school spirit contests are organized every year for NHS members.

Stanford Achievement Tests administered every year from grades 1 through 8 score well above the national average. Students in High School are encouraged to take the PSAT exam in the ninth, tenth and eleventh grades to prepare for the SATs. Students, on the whole, score above the national average. We have no concerns about high school drop outs. Graduates enter the working world and approximately 85% go on to college and take up various careers such as business, medicine, music and trades. Feedback from employers and colleges demonstrate high success rates.

Immaculate Heart of Mary School is grateful to its benefactors, dedicated teachers, and supportive parents who have done much to make our school what it is today, Fortes in Fide.
