KRQE - New Mexico Living

We sought a place that combined strong academics with a focus on faith and values, and St. Mary's fit that description perfectly.

Hands-on program allows for students to have an intimate relationship with God and Mass

Spring is a wonderful time of the year.  The days are getting longer and warmer.  Trees are beginning to bud and flowers are slowly breaking through the once frozen ground.   With the Easter season still upon us, there are signs of new life all around us.  I thought this would be the perfect time to add two new events to the Risen Savior Catholic Preschool calendar.

St. Thomas Aquinas School’s (STAS) youngest pelicans have had a great year learning with many fun activities.  One of their latest was a week packed with projects that included creating, rhyming, and lots of exciting activities in math and science.  How did they do this?  Well, there’s no better way than reading Dr. Seuss stories.   

At Our Lady of the Assumption Catholic School, in Albuquerque, we strive to connect students with hands-on learning opportunities. 

Singing from memory a varied repertoire of songs representing genres and styles from diverse cultures, and most importantly from our Catholic tradition.

The Labreche family has been an important part of the St. Mary’s community for nine years and hopefully seven more years to come as their youngest, Beau is in first grade.

In a world where so many people place science and religion at odds with one another, here at O.L.A., we want to show the bridge between the two. In 1996, St. Pope John Paul II said that in terms of faith and science, true science and true religion were compatible because “We know that truth does not contradict the truth.” O.L.A. strives to use these experiences and testimonies of our guests to help our students understand that science can in fact, enhance our faith, and help us grow a deeper love, appreciation, and understanding for God’s creation.

Camp Invention is a week-long summer camp, that boosts confidence in kids using a hands-on STEM curriculum that lets those students entering Kindergarten through sixth grade explore, study, and even invent! The camp involves learning but incorporates games and encourages friendships. Camp Invention is a program of the National Inventors Hall of Fame.

St. Mary's continues to be a growth mindset school with a vision for continuous improvement and a fun place to work.

Guided by Catholic Social Teaching and supported by students, parents, staff, and local organizations, hundreds of service projects, both group and individual, have made a difference in the Albuquerque area and beyond over the past two decades.

We strive to teach our students about the importance of serving others like Jesus did. To emphasize this lesson, the students learned about community helpers in the month of April.

Students at St. Thomas Aquinas School has participated in the Central New Mexico Science and Research challenge for over 20 years. We are proud to recognize students for their work on scientific research and their collaborative projects.

St. Mary’s Catholic School in Belen has been a cornerstone of the Valencia County community for nearly a century. Since 1927, the school has been providing quality Catholic education to students in the area, and its legacy of excellence continues to this day.

We can’t wait to offer an additional opportunity for families to join our thriving community. Annunciation has proudly served the community for over 60 years and currently has an enrollment of over 400 students from JK to 8th grade. 

While parents are their children’s first teachers, at OLA, teachers and staff strive to do their part to serve our community and help lead our students and their families to holiness, and ultimately sainthood.

Prayer services allow for flexibility and creativity on the part of the classes; the service does not have to conform to the readings of the day or follow the structure of the Mass. Since our school is focusing on the virtues and the fruits of the Holy Spirit, each prayer service reflects one of those.

This apostolate will be a way to connect with our local community as well as those outside of our geographical area to study our heritage, strengthen relationships and network with others who want to help us with our school mission to raise saints and form scholars.
