"Success comes to those who work hard and stays with those, who don’t rest on the laurels of the past." St. Mary’s High School, Jalna aims to create a supportive and inclusive environment where gifted and talented students are encouraged to explore their potential and achieve their personal best in all aspects of school life. Students will be challenged and engaged through authentic learning opportunities that inspire them to develop creativity, confidence and resilience to become independent and ethical life-long learners.
It was Margaret Mead who said “Children must be taught how to think, not what to think,” and to enable this, our motto of Knowledge for service is encouraged through a holistic approach. "TO MOTIVATE THE WEAK, TO ADDRESS THE AVERAGE AND CHALLENGE THE GIFTED" is the teaching vision of our school. Aristotle once said that, “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” Even as we impart education to match the advancement in technology and globalization, we march our children ahead with Fransalian ethos of moral values and principles. We endeavour constantly to instil these qualities in our children.
Today we live in a world that is so very different from the one we grew up in, the one we were educated in. The world today is changing at such an accelerated rate and we as educators need to pause and reflect on this entire system of Education. Are our schools well equipped to prepare our children to face the challenges that the future holds? Questions such as these are factors that motivate us to go through a continuous process of reflection and hence we the Fransalian educators work at implementing a well-balanced curriculum to ensure that the children who walk into the portals of our Schools will not just love their school years but truly be prepared to face life’s challenges. Truly St. Mary’s High School, Jalna relentlessly striving hard to live up to the motto of the schoolo “Knowledge for Service.”
With sincere and warm regards
