My experience at Mount has overall been good. Throughout my four years I have made friends, connected with people I never thought I would, and connected more with myself. My favorite parts are charity day, a student talent show and dressing up to raise money for a charity, and spirit week, a week full of fun dress up days and activities. Some things I don't like about the school are the extremely high lunch prices and the strict rules that make my day feel less freeing.

My c daughter will not return. The only time rhey care for the poor or downtrodden is for a photo opt. Crazy as it seems but t...

Attending Mount Saint Joseph Academy was the best decision I ever made. I graduated in 2012 and am currently enrolled at a competitive liberal arts college. MSJA provided me with the tools I need to succeed not only in college but in life. The friendships I made at MSJA will last for a very long tim...
