SMGS: St. Mary's Grade School’s approach to discipline emphasizes its roots in spirituality, viewing misbehavior holistically and using it as an opportunity for students to build virtue and faith. SMGS: By fostering an environment of accountability and restoration, students are encouraged to reflect on their actions, repair relationships, and learn how to rectify harm, which supports their moral development. To help aid in this mission, St. Mary's Grade School will implement Virtues Based Restorative Discipline with students beginning this school year. There will be a focus on a different virtue each month to enhance student growth, and parents will be notified via the app of any ways they can support our mission at home.
