About Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM)
Mission: Immaculate Heart of Mary School, founded by the Sisters of St. Joseph in 1957, serves the community, providing a Christ-centered Catholic education that strives for academic excellence by challenging students to learn and teachers to innovate within a comprehensive program that fosters faith formation, social growth, and service to others.
Immaculate Heart of Mary offers a comprehensive curriculum for grades pre-k to 8. Technology is infused in each classroom through the use of SmartTVs, Chromebooks, laptops and iPads (younger students). In addition to developing a strong foundation in the basics—i.e. Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science—students have the opportunity to develop their talents in Spanish, STEM, Art, Music, Physical Education, and Technology/Library Skills. A parallel instructional program is offered in Math and Language Arts for students experiencing challenges in the traditional classroom setting. The instructional program is complemented by an extensive Athletic program, various clubs, and offerings in instrumental music. Before-Care and After-Care programs are available to assist working families.
While each student has a Religion class, Religious instruction permeates each and every subject. Each grade level selects an annual Service Project and works to addresses the needs of those programs through financial contributions, service hours, or other means. Regular instruction in Character Education, enhanced with team building exercises, support the students’ spiritual, emotional, and social development. Noted for its academic strengths and character development Immaculate Heart of Mary has spread its alumni throughout the tri-state area and beyond.
The foundation of IHM continues to be the sense of community and shared purpose that exists between the Parish and the School. The Parish support is evident through the involvement of the Home and School Association and several Parish committees. Finally, it must be noted that leadership provided by a succession of strong Pastors has contributed to the overall success and development of Immaculate Heart of Mary School.
