Philosophy Statement
At Mary Immaculate Catholic School, we believe that education shapes the whole child—mind, heart, and soul. In partnership with parents and the community, we guide students to discover and develop their God-given gifts, fostering growth in faith, character, academic excellence, and cultural appreciation.
Academic Excellence– We challenge students to think critically, solve problems creatively, and cultivate a lifelong love of learning through rigorous academics and a commitment to perseverance.
Faith Formation– Under the guidance of the Nashville Dominican Sisters, our students deepen their relationship with Christ, learning to live with reverence, service, and devotion to the Church.
Character Development– Through athletics, the arts, and leadership opportunities, students build resilience, teamwork, and the confidence to share their talents with the world.
Cultural Appreciation– Rooted in a diverse and dynamic community, our students learn to value different perspectives, appreciate beauty in the arts, and develop a global mindset that prepares them for the future.
At MIS, we believe that an education inspired by faith, wisdom, and wonder prepares students to lead, serve, and transform the world with grace and purpose.

Founded over 65 years ago, Mary Immaculate Catholic School has been a cornerstone of academic excellence and faith formation in the Diocese of Dallas. Located in the heart of Farmers Branch, TX, the school has remained steadfast in its mission to educate the whole child—mind, body, and spirit—within a Christ-centered environment. Under the guidance of the Nashville Dominican Sisters, Mary Immaculate fosters a love for learning and spiritual growth, preparing students from PreK4 through 8th grade for both higher education and a life of service. With a commitment to academic rigor, faith-based values, and leadership development, MIS has continually evolved to meet the needs of its students, integrating programs such as the Motter Business Program for financial literacy, Catechesis of the Good Shepherd for religious formation, and a diverse range of extracurricular and athletic opportunities.
