St. Mary's High School is a small, co-educational, college-preparatory Catholic high school located in downtown Annapolis, Maryland. It is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Baltimore. St. Mary's is accredited by AdvancED, the Archdiocese of Baltimore and is recognized and approved by the Maryland State Department of Education.

St. Mary's High School is co-located with its affiliated parish church St. Mary's Church and elementary school. The church and parish itself date back to 1853 with the arrival of the Redemptorists in Baltimore. St. Mary's School (elementary) was founded in 1862 and the high school was added in 1946.

The demographic breakdown of the 500 students enrolled in 2013-2014 was:

The school is located in downtown Annapolis on Duke of Gloucester Street. It is connected by a hallway and outdoor walkway with St. Mary's Elementary School, with whom it also shares a library building, and shares its grounds with St. Mary's Church as well as the Charles Carroll House, the historic home of Charles Carroll of Annapolis. Originally, the School Sisters of Notre Dame maintained a convent on the property as well; that building has since been transformed primarily into a library and computer labs. Classrooms and hallways are based on a traditional corridor basis (A, B, and C), with lockers located in each along the walls. The gymnasium is also located on campus, and is named after C. Mason "Daffy" Russell, a longtime coach at St. Mary's.

Being located in a tight, urban area, surrounded by historic properties, the school does not have athletic fields of its own on campus. Historically, the school has utilized practice facilities at Bates Middle School and Germantown Elementary School for practices, and has used various sites in the area for home games. In 2007, St. Mary's finally gained its own home field by building the St. Mary's Field at St. John Neumann Church on Bestgate Road, approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) from campus.
