Loved and feel very grateful for my time at the Mount! I made some of my very best friends there, and I was more than prepared for college!

This is the premier single-sex academy for young women that prepares them to be transformational leaders as members of society, far beyond an excellent preparatory experience for college. The facilities will be undergoing a significant upgrade beginning this fall with construction of a state-of the art athletic center.

We have been associated with the Mount for almost 15 years now. We are the proud parents of 3 alums all of whom had life changing experiences at the Mount. Our girls were exceptionally prepared for college. They were active in sports and clubs and remain very close with the teachers and administration. We have all formed lifelong friendships that will be forever treasured.

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...
