Vision Statement

At St. Margaret School, we strive to:

  • Foster our students’ faith by providing a Christ-filled learning environment which promotes prayer, reflection, and service.
  • Teach our students to be independent thinkers and problem solvers, so that they are prepared for challenges beyond the classroom.
  • Sustain a professional community of highly effective faculty and staff committed to the school’s mission through continuous learning opportunities and a favorable comparison of salaries with surrounding districts.
  • Ensure operational vitality by maintaining a fiscally responsible budget and capital plan that considers trends in enrollment management and marketing, upgrading the school facilities, and providing the highest quality of education, aligning with the mission of our school

Mission Statement

St. Margaret School is a parish school in the Archdiocese of Baltimore offering a rigorous academic program while focusing on GRIT (God, Respect and Responsibility, Integrity and Teamwork). As a child of God, each student is encouraged to live the Gospel message and spread the Good News through his or her words and actions. Our graduates are equipped to be faith-filled 21st century learners and leaders.

Dear St. Margaret Families, ​ Following Harford County Public Schools' decision to close schools due to weather conditions, St. Margaret School will be closed on Thursday, January 29, and on Friday, January 30. Although students have not been assigned specific work from their teachers, instead we encourage our asynchronous work to include students playing outside, spending time in prayer, reading, drawing a picture, or writing a paragraph about their snow day experiences. These experiences can be shared with their teachers and classmates when we return to school. Information will be sent regarding the HSA-sponsored Movie event. Thank you for your patience, understanding, and support during this very unique Catholic Schools Week 2026! Blessings, Mrs. Shanahan
