it was fine; as said in other reviews, it was a hostile environment for lgbt+ and i remember during mass we were sometimes told to pray for certain political viewpoints. for instance, i remember being asked to pray for the overturning of roe v. wade at some point. overall, it isn't as prestigious as it was made out to be, and they only really care about students who have achieved some recognition outside of school, otherwise, they kind of don't really bother with providing opportunties or help

Best part: graduating Worst part: the school culture, administration, not having enough support and resources

Maur Hill Mount Academy has been the best experience of my life so far. The incorporation of faith and the overall atmosphere is a great one to be around. The summer camps sponsored by the school completely changed my life and I don't want to leave high school.

This is not a school it is a company they treat borders very poorly to earn money from the tuition. They dumb down students and do not allow any academic advancements to be made. They offer no A.P classes and only a select collage LEVEL NOT collage credit.

Maur Hill Mount Academy is an excellent school. The teachers and staff are great and are very helpful. It's a very unique experience being a boarding and day school. MHMA is a great place for any high school student.
