Our Lady of Belén Parish School -St. Mary's has been serving the Valencia County community since 1927. Many of the great grandchildren of the first graduating class (1934) are attending St. Mary's along with children from surrounding communities. There are currently over 200 students from K to 8th grade. Alumni are proud to look back at the solid foundation they received at St. Mary's. Many others also appreciate the strong religious/spiritual growth program and the well-rounded educational experiences which make it possible for students to move on to be successful in whatever they attempt.

St. Mary's has and is still providing a valuable service to the entire Valencia County area by not only preparing our students to be informed, active Christian/Catholics, but training them academically to become productive, caring adult citizens. By integrating Christian values into the entire curriculum, we are able to provide opportunities for our students to hear and experience the Word of the Lord on a daily basis.
