Mr. Berg
This school is an amazing place where I have grown both personally and professionally. The faculty and staff have helped me feel like I am welcomed and like I belong from the moment I stepped on campus--and that feeling has never left! The authenticity of this place is palpable, especially in the way we live our Loretto School Values of faith, community, justice, and respect. Those values are one of the many reasons why I love telling people I work at St. Mary's Academy. Our commitment to creating a community where students truly feel like they belong, like they are seen, and like they are valued is what gets me excited about coming to work. I couldn't imagine myself being anywhere else than SMA.
