Campus Safety

Saint Mary’s School has many ways of keeping students safe. Security guards are on duty at all times and we have access control systems on our parking lots, academic buildings and residence halls.  When students leave the residence hall for an afternoon trip to get a smoothie or a weekend shopping expedition, they check out face-to-face with an adult who knows where they are going and what time they plan to return. When students return and at key points during the day and weekend, these checks help SMS resident faculty to be sure that girls are safe and well.

SMS believes that good physical and emotional heath is important to helping girls do their best in the classroom, on stage or on the field.   With two resident nurses, a supervising physician, a counseling support specialist, 24/7 triage service, CPR certified faculty, an Athletic trainer, two Automatic External Defibrillators on campus, and Duke and UNC Health Systems nearby,  we are prepared to keep students safe and healthy.

Saint Mary’s School is full of nurturing adults who make sure that students are well-cared-for, body and mind.
