We are not Catholic. How does faith life work?
Students do not have to be Catholic to attend St. Mary’s. Every student studies theology and participates respectfully in the school’s Catholic life, including Mass, prayer and time in the Shrine Chapel. Non-Catholic students are not expected to profess beliefs they do not hold, but they are expected to engage seriously with the faith tradition of the school and attend school Masses.
