St. Marys High School is excited to celebrate the incredible success of our Agribusiness Program! This year, 138 students are enrolled—representing an amazing 47% of our entire student body. 💙💛

Our students don’t stop there! Along with Agribusiness, many also explore additional CTE opportunities through MOVTI, dual credit college courses, visual arts, journalism, music, and all required graduation pathways. Their dedication and hard work continue to showcase the strong tradition of excellence at SMHS.

We’re proud of our students and all they accomplish through Career & Technical Education. Keep shining, Blue Devils!

The JV game tips off at 5:45 pm and the varsity game will tip off approximately 20 minutes after the conclusion of the JV game. Do not wait until 7:30 to arrive or the varsity game may have started already. The earlier start will help Calhoun to return home on a school night. Thank you and hope to see you here soon! Good luck Blue Devils!
