Prepared for Her Future
Academics
At Mount St. Mary Academy, we recognize that the high school years are four of the most important years of a student's life. The college-preparatory program and challenging, yet supportive all-girls learning environment at Mount provide a platform that empowers each student to reach her greatest potential and to meet the challenges of the future as a woman of wisdom, compassion, and integrity.
Academics Overview
The required curriculum program at Mount St. Mary Academy meets or surpasses college entrance requirements in each curricular area. In addition to completing the graduation requirements, the majority of students complete four years of science or social studies as well as three or four years of international language. For those seeking the most challenging college preparatory curriculum, the options of a full-scale honors program and the Advanced Placement program are available.
Aware that the rigor of coursework in high school is the best predictor of college success, Mount St. Mary Academy’s Counseling Department actively works one-on-one with each student to select classes and course levels that maximize her college preparation. When the time comes, students will also work individually with our college counselor who’s available to help create college lists, prepare applications, and answer question about the college search process.
