We are so thankful for the opportunities the Mount has provided our daughter. The academics, sports, clubs, Administration are all top-notch. The teachers truly care for every student, wanting each to reach their full potential in and out of the classroom. We could not be more happy with our decision to send our daughter to MSJA and I can honestly say our daughter would agree with how fortunate she is to experience the education and sisterhood that she has at the Mount. The first two years have been A+ and we are excited to see what the next two years bring!
The academics are as rigorous as you would expect and as other people say, so I have no complaints on that side of things. However, the social scene is not good if you aren’t accepted into the community immediately. I struggled to make friends my freshman year and was never able to establish any lasting relationships since that point. The new administration doesn’t run the school in the way the students are accustomed to and tend to disregard tradition. Punishments for things that don’t seem like a big deal are far too strict (threatening prom over people wearing their skirts too short). Teachers are overall very good but there are a select few that perpetuate the problems within the social scene including a lack of acceptance for diverse students. Overall the school is very homogeneous in terms of race and ethnicity, but I think in recent years it has gotten better.
Mount Saint Joseph Academy changed my life. While it may not be right for everyone, I did extremely well and I'm off to a top, elite college for Fall 2023. The best part of the school was its commitment to creating well rounded women who can hold their own in this world. There is no doubt here, that the school has succeeded in doing that and wonderfully so. All of us, in my class, are prepared to meet most any academic challenge put in front of us. That's why you choose to go to a school like this. The worst part is that they need to work on their diversity and becoming a bit more accepting and welcoming of students who don't fit their traditional mould. too many times, I experienced people who are "different' not being accepted or not being treated up to the standards of the school's religious training and teaching. That was somewhat disappointing. Change will come as soon as the secular and political stands of the day take a back seat to the teachings of Jesus.
