Christ Our King-Stella Maris School

Christ Our King-Stella Maris School is a Catholic co-educational pre-K through 8th grade day school in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. Located just outside historic Charleston, South Carolina, COKSM was founded in 1950 at Stella Maris Church on Sullivan's Island. In 1953, the school relocated to its present site near the parish of Christ Our King in nearby Mount Pleasant. Currently the school has a student population of over 600 students and serves the parishes of Christ Our King, Stella Maris, and St. Benedict's. In 2009, the school was awarded the prestigious Blue Ribbon award by the US Department of Education. In 2011 , COKSM's middle years program became one of the few parochial schools in the country to be authorized as an International Baccalaureate MYP World School. In 2012, COKSM implemented a school-wide iPad initiative for students and faculty. Individual iPads were given to all teachers and to all students in grades 5 through 8. A mobile iPad lab with 25 units is also available for use in classrooms from pre-K through 4th grade. COKSM is fully accredited through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
