October 31
In a Halloween STEM project, Mrs. Powell and Mrs. Saggio helped embed straws in paper cones that 2nd graders dressed up in purple cloaks and green faces to resemble witches. Then, with a string suspended from the loft to the floor in HNOM's gymnasium, 2nd graders watched in awe as their magical designs glided down like a witch on a broomstick!Read More -

With string and spider embellishments, 7th graders helped 2nd grade brainstorm intricate, insect-catching web designs to weave across a paper plate. Students then competed to see how many insect pieces would stay trapped in their webbing! Mrs. Powell, our K-8 technology and 6-8 science teacher, plans collaborative STEM activities to bridge our middle school and elementary classrooms for interpersonal learning, team-building, leadership skill development, and seasonal fun!Read More -

To learn about Monday's federal holiday, Columbus Day, 2nd graders researched the 1942 arrival in the Americas, colored in pictures of the explorer's famous ships, and recited lines - like "Columbus sailed the ocean blue" - from a famous rhyme!Read More

Letter from the Principal
August 1, 2023
Dear Holy Name of Mary Families;
It is with great honor that I join the community as the principal of Holy Name of Mary School. From my observations, Holy Name of Mary is a very close knit community. It is a privilege to be part of such a strong community and I am very excited about the upcoming school year.
Prior to becoming the principal, I had almost twenty five years of experience as a teacher, an administrator and curriculum writer. I have worked in elementary, middle schools and a high school. When I was a teacher, I taught English Language Arts and Social Studies. As an administrator my areas of focus were student academic growth and student discipline. I am thrilled to use some of my skills as the school’s educational leader.
Catholic schools hold a very special place in my heart. I attended catholic school for most of my life. I met my husband while attending catholic school together and my daughter attends catholic school. The morals, values and lessons that are taught in catholic schools (in partnership with what is taught at home) are key for a child’s development and success. I am committed to making sure that these morals, values and lessons remain at the forefront of your child’s education.
Academically, my vision is to ensure each child is receiving the type of education that is needed for success in the future. At Holy Name of Mary, we pride ourselves on having small class sizes. This instructional design leads to more personalized learning and attention for each child. We provide a rigorous academic program. Feel free to look at our website for more information on our academic program. We have openings in some grades, if you know anyone who may be interested in joining our community, please reach out.
Thank you for choosing our school! I look forward to meeting all of you in the upcoming weeks. Feel free to reach out in the meantime mvelasco5578@gmail.com.
Peace and Blessings,
Marcia Velasco

Proud Principal
