St. Mary's participates in the Diocesan Safe Environment training known as VIRTUS and is in compliance with all dictates from the local Bishop relating to hiring practices and screening of all salaried and volunteer personnel. A primary goal of the Diocese and administration is to provide a safe environment for all who spend time at the school each and every day.

All parents are encouraged to attend a Safe Environment Training which is necessary to have contact with St. Mary's students in a school setting.  (Chaperoning field trips, room mothers, coaching teams, etc.)

Sessions for Initial Certification are held throughout the year at the Minor Basilica of the Immaculate Conception Church Hall.

To view the policy and register for an upcoming session, please visit Diocesan Safe Environment.
