About the School

Located in the Bronx neighborhood of Westchester Square, Santa Maria School has been educating children since 1951. The school offers rigorous academics and a caring, values-based atmosphere for students in grades Pre-K3 to 8th.

A small Catholic school with one class per grade, Santa Maria is a tight-knit family. Our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to providing the individual attention and discipline students need to succeed. Students receive daily instruction in Catholic teachings, traditions, and values.  We welcome children of all faiths, as their diversity enriches our community.

Santa Maria School maintains a close relationship with its parish.  Click here to visit the parish website.

Our Supporters

Santa Maria is blessed by the support of our school's Patrons, whose assistance makes possible a wide range of programmatic and capital improvements. With their support, we have recently hired a Cooke Center math consultant and strengthened our technology curriculum.

Santa Maria is also supported by an Advisory Board, which was formed in January 2005. Board members donate time, professional expertise, and financial support to help our school grow and thrive. Recent accomplishments include organizing a spring Wine Tasting Benefit and in-school Painting Day.
