Welcome to Santa Maria del Valle
ESMV is one of the most passionate challenges in our professional career. It is a privilege to have been called upon this mission by the Almighty Father to lead our students to grow in mind, body and soul, providing them with the skills necessary to succeed in the 21st century, collegiate years and life ahead.
At Santa Maria del Valle you will find faith, academics, technology, innovation, sports, and a team of dynamic professional, caring faculty and staff working together to carry out our school’s mission.
Thank you and we hope you enjoy your visit.
Our preschool program is for children between ages one through five. The curriculum is based on learning through play, focused on developing the skills required to succeed in the years ahead.
Elementary school includes grades First through Fifth. The main focus is developing math, reading and comprehension skills, and writing, concentrating on critical thinking and collaborative work along with the use of technology all across the curriculum.
Middle School has a dynamic environment, where students have a smooth transition from childhood to adolescence, providing a solid academic foundation in mind, body and soul.
The High School environment qualifies our students academically to achieve real-life goals by providing them with the opportunities to obtain life changing experiences in an innovative, entrepreneurial and high-tech environment.
Our academic program offers diverse opportunities for our students to grow academically in the different subject areas preparing them for pursuing a college degree at the University of their choice.
We apply a constructivist, project- based and competencies based curriculum developing XXI century skills all across, preparing our students to become transforming leaders, practicing our Catholic values instilled in them.
At Santa Maria del Valle we are focused on the development of the whole child. This is why sports is a vital program in our school. Co-curricular activities take place in the afternoon. Students, both girls and boys from kinder through twelfth participate in different sports. Among them we offer soccer, basketball, volleyball, track and field and tennis.
We participate in local, regional, national and international competitions.
We believe that we cannot grow as a whole if we do not nurture our spirit. The teaching and learning of the Catholic faith is one of our pillars. The Faith program is directed by the Claretian Sisters. The Students receive religion as part of the school curriculum, we attend weekly mass, retreats and we are appointed different missions by the church that take our students to nurture their souls and spirits, and also grow knowing that they can make a difference in their lives and the lives of so many people. The students at ESMV participate in community service to help our brothers and sisters in need.
And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children.

My daughter just finished 8th grade in this beautiful school, after four years, she is returning to the United States. Of all the things I have to say about ESMV, I would stay short. It’s an excellent school, where all the staff always gives their best in education and all other areas. I am very proud that my daughter was part of ESMV, and I am very proud of everything she learned and developed during this time. I want to thank all the faculty and staff that trusted in her abilities to represent the school in all the National competitions. I will never forget all the support she received, the love, respect and trust. I am proudly an Ex-Lasallista and am extremely proud that my daughter is an Ex Huskie!! Thank you Santa Maria del Valle for opening the doors to my daughter and provide her with the best education to form transforming leaders. God bless all of you and your families.
As ESMV parents, we are very satisfied with the education of our children in the three pillars of the School, mind, body and soul. It is very important for us that our suggestions and opinions are always listened to and we always receive answers to our questions. ESMV has an open door policy. We are extremely satisfied with how dynamic the school is, always implementing new programs in order to prepare our children for the future.
I have always felt proud of ESMV in San Pedro Sula Honduras, the school where my children learned the reality of life. At ESMV they teach diversity as it is an inclusive school, therefore our children grow with all these children ang helps them to accept and include diversity. Thank you ESMV, I will always remember you.
