Immaculate Heart of Mary School is rated one of the highest academic schools in the Tri-State area. Our teachers are highly trained and certified and they push their students to be the best they can be and to excel in academics. They help them in any way possible and prepare them for what they will be learning in their high school years. Many of the students that went through I.H.M. for grade school are great kids and wonderful students. Many of them receive top-honors from their high schools and go on to college with all the hopes that they will excel and succeed.

 

Jeff was one of our eighth graders last year who chose to continue his academic career at Walsh Jesuit High School. He chose this brilliant and highly rated school in hopes he will learn all he can in time for his college years. Going to IHM prepared him for high school in some of the best ways possible. Many of the things that he is learning now at Walsh, he learned his eighth grade year at IHM. Jeff had to make an extremely difficult decision last spring; he was to decide on which high school he would be attending in the fall. He of course chose Walsh. Both of his sisters went to Walsh, and he has been around the school for eight years now. He loves the environment, and he always knows people around Walsh’s campus. Jeff had some trouble in certain classes at IHM, but when he asked his teachers, he finally got it, and is now at the top of these classes at Walsh.

 

Alison was our student council president last year. She was a very bright student and a wonderful person to be around. From IHM she went on to St. Vincent St. Mary High School. Although her brother had gone to a different high school, her number one choice was St. Vincent St. Mary. She knew that from all her countless lessons that she acquired at IHM, St. V-M would be the number one place to continue her journey through school. She has learned many things at IHM that she could have never learned at a normal public school, and she is grateful for everything she has accomplished because of IHM. She’s very active in many religious groups at St. V-M, and is thankful for her IHM education, which got her thinking more about her faith.

 

Todd, a former IHM student, chose to continue his education in one of the best schools money could buy, Archbishop Hoban High School. Before he was able to choose which high school he wanted to attend, he had to visit the many Catholic high schools of the area. His visit to Hoban was a very inspiring one. When he saw the many possibilities that were available to him at Hoban, he did not want to go anywhere else. Since his uncle is a Hoban Alumni, Hoban always had always been his number one choice for a Catholic high school. Going to IHM has helped him in many ways. At IHM he obtained a lot of information in many different subjects such as, Biology, Religion and English. When he started at Hoban, the curriculum that they were learning was much the same as he had learned at IHM. Not many things are the alike between Hoban and IHM, but Todd has been adjusting and beginning to get the hang of his new high school schedule. Todd receives good grades in many of his subjects at Hoban. His teachers at IHM have helped him to accomplish this achievement.

 

Not far down the road from IHM is a vigorous school known as Cuyahoga Falls High School. It’s filled with all different types of students and many opportunities for a great education. Gina, yet another former IHM eighth grader chose to embark on a journey through Falls High. She chose Cuyahoga Falls High School in hopes that even though it is a public school, she will be receiving the same education that she would be receiving at a Catholic high school.  She learned many things at IHM and is hoping to learn just as many at Falls High. A lot of the subjects are much easier because of her IHM education.

 

IHM has been a great influence on these as well as many other students that have graduated from the 8th grade. They have learned many lessons and acquired many facts about different subjects in including, Math, Literature, English, Religion, Science, and Social Studies. All of these opportunities and more are available to all the Immaculate Heart of Mary Grade School students. Because of IHM, these children have excelled and succeeded in everything they have done.
