We're at St. Louis and love it. The principal is fantastic, she attended St. Louis as a child, lives in the community and genuinely takes an interest in the lives of the students in and out of school. It offers a ton of after school activities, STEM club, band, chorus, track, cross country, basketball, and a new debate team plus many more.
It's more diverse than St. Mary's, the campus has more green space with a play ground, baseball and soccer fields etc. Recess is encouraged in all grades.
My kids attend St. Mary's from K though 8, and I also know at least a dozen families currently at St. Louis.
We thought St. Mary's was excellent and likewise the many St. Louis families we know have also been incredibly happy with their choice. You can't go wrong at either school.
