A college prep school for girls, our curriculum sparks curiosity, bridging tradition with academic excellence and faith with intellectual exploration. In a nurturing and safe environment, Mount students - a community of justice-minded truth-seekers and trailblazers - are encouraged to think critically, lead with empathy, discover their passions, and most importantly - be themselves.
