Academics
St. Mary of Carmel Catholic School is a pre-kindergarten through eighth grade diocesan school accredited by the Texas Catholic Conference of Bishops Education Department.
The development of a child is multifaceted: the intellectual, spiritual, emotional, physical, and social dimensions all require care and nurturing for the formation of a healthy child. We recognize this process by utilizing developmentally appropriate teaching practices designed to address the age group served. The Diocesan Curriculum Guide serves as a model for content and pacing at each grade level.
In order to maximize our resources and meet the individual needs of each student, St. Mary of Carmel utilizes a Blended Learning Station Rotation Model of instruction in Reading and Math K-8th grades.
