Approximately 99% of each graduating class pursues a higher education at a college, university or military service academy. In the Class of 2014, students received almost $12.7 million in scholarship offers.[3] St. Mary's Ryken provides education for almost 700 students in grades 9-12 and is the only Catholic high school affiliated with the Archdiocese of Washington in the three Southern Maryland counties. Students come from St. Mary's, Calvert, Charles and southern Prince George's counties. The school colors are blue, green and white, and the official mascot is the knight. HistorySt. Mary's Ryken was established in 1981 and traces its roots in Catholic education to St. Mary's Academy (est. 1885) and Ryken High School (est. 1956). The Sisters of Charity of Nazareth opened St. Mary's Academy (SMA) in 1885 on the grounds of the property known as Rose Hill in Leonardtown. Mrs. Richard H. Miles bequeathed the property to Father Charles Jenkins, S.J., with the intent that it be used by "a religious order to conduct a Catholic school." SMA grew rapidly as a coeducational boarding school and accepted students from kindergarten through twelfth grade. The burgeoning population of St. Mary's County and Southern Maryland soon rendered the academy too small and a new school building was erected in 1936. In 1956, the school expanded yet again with a dormitory, convent and chapel. With the opening of the new, all boys Ryken High School, the sisters carried on their selfless dedication as a school for young women. In 1916, to their good fortune, the Xaverian Brothers purchased over one hundred acres along Breton Bay from Mr. Enoch Abell and opened a camp for boys known as Camp Calvert. Young men flocked from the cities to spend a few weeks of their summer vacations there. The brothers' vision for this property was to eventually build a school and novitiate for boys and, in 1956, their dream became reality with the opening of Ryken High School (RHS). The school, named after Theodore James Ryken, founder of the Xaverian order, served as a juniorate for those with vocations to the Xaverian Brothers as well as a high school for young men. Eventually, with a diminishing number of boarders and vocational candidates, both SMA and RHS closed their dormitories and operated solely as Catholic high schools. SMA and RHS supported each other through sports programs, theater and music productions, dances, proms and academic instruction. By the late 1970s, both schools experienced declining enrollments and agreed to merge into one coeducational Catholic high school. In 2009, St. Mary's Ryken embarked on the first significant reshaping of its campus in almost 30 years. Phase 1 of the Strategic Master Plan was put into action with the groundbreaking for the SMR Athletic Complex. In this year, all of Paschal Hall was air conditioned and an annex was added that includes an office for the Athletics Director and a new boys' team and locker room. A 340-space parking lot was built on the grounds of the old student parking lot and the field and track behind Paschal Hall. Construction of the new 1,000-seat stadium with pressbox, artificial turf field and six-lane track was completed in August 2010. Student lifeClubsThe second period of the day is called "X-hour" (Xaverian hour)and this is when students can participate in one of over 50 clubs and/or a study hall. Despite its name, it lasts half an hour. SportsSt. Mary's Ryken is a member of the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference.[8] The varsity softball team captured the 2014 WCAC conference title.[9] Other athletics champions: in 2010, a member of the SMR golf team won the individual WCAC golf championship; in 2007, the boys lacrosse team won the WCAC conference title. Fall sports: cross country, field hockey, cheerleading, football, sailing, soccer, tennis and volleyball; Winter sports: basketball, cheerleading, ice hockey, swimming and wrestling; Spring sports: baseball, golf, lacrosse, sailing, softball, tennis and track & field. Fine artsConcert band, orchestra, jazz band, Shakespearean drama, drama, dance, chorus, photography, art appreciation, pre-architecture, pottery, sculpture, photography and studio art are the main fine art classes and clubs. Each has at least one concert, rehearsal or showcase during the school year with all disciplines participating in the annual Fine Arts Festival. SpiritualitySt. Mary's Ryken is open to students of all faiths. The school holds liturgies and Mass periodically in the gym, and all students are required to take four years of theology classes, more than the required credit for science; however, students do have the option to take Global Bridges, a global awareness class, their junior year, and philosophy in their senior year. Students frequently take part in mission programs including various trips of service projects. During X-Hour, students can participate in Mass or Reconciliation, which are both held by the school's Teen Life Catholic Ministry Program. UniformStudents wear button-down shirts with dress pants or kilts in the winter and polo shirts with khaki shorts or kilts in the summer. The polo shirt colors are navy blue, white and forest green. Clubs and sports polo shirts are also allowed. Underclassmen wear green and blue SMR ties. The winter uniform includes a blazer for upperclassmen and a sweater for underclassmen. General information
