Shattuck-St. Mary's (also known as Shattuck-St. Mary's School, Shattuck, or simply SSM) is a coeducational Episcopal-affiliated boarding school in the city of Faribault, Minnesota. Established in 1858 as an Episcopal mission school and seminary, within a decade the school grew to include Shattuck Military Academy, St. Mary's Hall for girls and later (in 1901) St. James School for younger boys. In 1974, the three schools dropped all military programs and combined as Shattuck-St. Mary's. It is now known for its Centers of Excellence programs in engineering, BiosScience, The Major, pre-conservatory music, and vocal performance, as well as hockey, soccer, figure skating, and golf. Approximately 80% of its students are boarders.[ citation needed ]

In 2018, SSM opened its first dedicated international campus in Forest City, Johor, Malaysia. [3] In June 2024, the school rebranded as Forest City International School and ended its association with SSM. [4]

[13] Located within St. Mary's Hall, less than half a mile from the Upper School, the Middle School program provides students from grades 6–9. [14]

Global education

In 2013, SSM embarked on a partnership with Beijing Bayi School which culminated in the creation of a satellite campus known as SSM-Bayi in Beijing, China. The program offered classes preparing students for the Chinese Huikao examinations as well as a traditional American curriculum featuring Advanced Placement courses and preparation for SAT tests. SSM-Bayi students also had the opportunity to attend summer sessions at the main SSM campus in Faribault. The first contract between the two school lasted until 2014. [15]

The program has been referred to as "Prodigy High" due to its success, and has been compared to music programs at top private arts schools. [22]

Vocal Performance

The Vocal Performance Program consists of classes on campus and training through Minnesota Opera's Project Opera program and the Hennepin Theater Trust's Spotlight Program. [23]

[24]

Intramural sports

Along with the Center of Excellence sports, numerous interscholastic sports opportunities are offered in a three-season program and include Basketball, Baseball, Fencing, Golf, Lacrosse, Soccer, Spring League Hockey, Running Club, Tennis, Volleyball, and Ultimate Frisbee. Many Center of Excellence athletes are able to cross-over into these intramural sports for at least one semester a year. [24]

The Hockey Center of Excellence consists of five boys teams, ranging in age from U14 to U18, and three girls' teams. [25] All teams play a seven-month schedule, averaging 50–75 games a season, with tournament play throughout the United States and Canada. Since the late 1990s, the program has had a considerable amount of domestic and international success, including a total of 36 USA Hockey National Championships. The school has also gained a reputation as the "Hogwarts of Hockey," and being "to hockey what Harvard is to law." [26] Players go on to compete at the highest levels of collegiate and Junior League Hockey, and in numerous cases, the NHL and the Winter Olympics. [27]

Soccer

Started in 2005, the Soccer Center of Excellence is one of three more recognized soccer residential programs in the country, and the only one to fully combine school and sport. The program has five teams: two girls' and four boys'. More SSM soccer players sign to play for NCAA Division I colleges than any other high school in the country, and the school has produced professional players, such as Teal Bunbury [28] The program is now a competitive member of MLS Next. [29]

Figure skating

Founded in 2006, the Figure Skating Center of Excellence offers the first elite figure skating program integrated with academics in a boarding school environment, and provides a balance between training, competing, and schooling. [30] Skaters compete domestically and internationally, often in national championships in their home countries. [31]

Golf

Founded in 2012, the Golf Center of Excellence allows athletes to compete in American Junior Golf Association and Future Collegians World Tour (FCWT) events, and combines an academic setting with an intensive 10 month golf program. During the spring and fall, practice sessions take place at The Legacy Golf Course, and during the winter an indoor facility is used, including a turf room with a putting and chipping green, a video and putting analysis room with JC Video software and TOMI putting system, and locker rooms. Training through the winter combined with travel to tournaments and events in warmer climates provides experience and exposure to young golfers from the Midwest, where such opportunities are limited.
