We’re proud to announce St. Mary’s High School has been named a PLTW 2025–26 Distinguished School in recognition of our commitment to expanding student access, engagement, and achievement through our Project Lead The Way (PLTW) programs. This honor reflects the hard work of our students, teachers, and school community as we continue inspiring innovation, curiosity, and excellence in STEM education.
We would also like to recognize and thank our own Mrs. Maxine Hennessey, whose dedication continues to create incredible opportunities for our students. Through her efforts in submitting a board-approved application to the Rocky Mountain Chapter of AFCEA, St. Mary’s was awarded a $5,000 PLTW Grant for the Principles of Biomedical Science program.
Thank you, Mrs. Hennessey, for going above and beyond—not only in securing this grant for St. Mary’s, but for the passion, leadership, and impact you bring to the classroom every day. We are grateful for all you do and proud of the opportunities you continue to create for our Pirates! ⚓💚

A huge thank you to Kari Brunsting and Patrick Prigge from @ocs_mn for visiting our @pltworg Medical Interventions students @wayzatahs
It was a privilege to have them share their expertise and clinical insights with our class. The presentation and hands-on experiences provided an authentic look into the field and helped connect our classroom studies with real-world impact.
We are incredibly grateful for their time and for the inspiration they have sparked in our future healthcare leaders. Thank you for showing our students the intersection of engineering, medicine, and patient care!

4 seniors, 4 white coats, 4 PLTW classes, 4 hours of college credit for each! I am so grateful to have had all of these PLTW students for four years in a row. Look out world, here they come!
🏫 Happy National Teacher Appreciation Week 🏫
The word "passion" gets used a lot when talking about the teachers that helped us along the way. You can't fake passion, but when you find yours, you find happiness!
Thank you to teachers like Mr. Edgar Jones for guiding students towards their passions in life.
