    My time at Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School was amazing! I made so many friends that will last me a life time, I grew in an unbelievable way in my faith and was shaped as a person in my 13 (I went to Kindergarten. I did not fail a class!) years of schooling with the "knights" as they call themselves. I also had some teachers that I know for a fact I will keep in touch with over the years and use them as references on job applications because of the bond we shared over some of the years I was there. My other siblings attended (and 1 still does attend) the school and they would give you the same review! Also they got a new gymnasium for their Athletics department and it looks like a college gym!

    Our family voluntarily transferred to Montgomery Catholic Preparatory from another top ranked private school. We could not be happier. Teachers strive to adapt the material to the child’s learning style. The academics are challenging, pushing a child at any learning level as far as they are capable. The School adapts to special learning challenges. Its graduates include National Merit scholars. MCP utilizes MAC laptops and textbooks. The sports program encourages every child to seek an activity to enjoy. We are impressed with the extra curricular activities and the administration. Administrators commonly walk the halls, and laugh and interact with students. We like being able to order lunches of our choosing from a school selected service which delivers.
    From what I experienced at Montgomery Catholic, the school as a whole is astounding! The teachers are genuinely interested in the education of the student and of the involvement of the parent. I am proud to say that as an official alumna I am noting that this institution is one of the best.
