BEYOND THE MOUNT
An investment in a Mount education pays lifelong dividends. During her time at the Mount, a student learns to live a well-rounded life where she can pursue and nurture her interests and passions. Bolstered by a strong academic, emotional and spiritual foundation, a Mountie sets forth into the world with conviction in her beliefs, confidence in herself and commitment to the service of the dear neighbor.

When a student enters the doors of Mount Saint Joseph Academy, she enters into a legacy of sisterhood that spans more than 160 years. Throughout the journey of her life, a Mountie knows she can lean on her large network of sisters who share an intimate understanding of one another. Long after they leave the Mount, our alumnae honor an unspoken sisterly commitment to help each other navigate through a variety of life’s adventures, whether it be post-secondary educational pursuits, career exploration & networking, motherhood, marriage & family, retirement or more. Our Mount Saint Joseph Academy Alumnae Association is strong and offers year-round programming to inspire, connect and renew the bonds of sisterhood across generations of Mounties.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
Graduate of American University (Bachelor’s: Psychology; Master’s: Secondary Education)
The Mount helped me gain confidence in myself, taught me how to think critically, and inspired me in my faith. By the time I got to college, I was fully prepared to excel in and outside of the classroom. My Mount experience truly shaped me into the fearless leader I am today!”
Constitutent Services Advisor for Pennsylvania State Representative Benjamin Sanchez (153rd District, representing Abington Township and a portion of Upper Dublin Township in Montgomery County)
My time at the Mount fostered my understanding of what it means to care for the ‘dear neighbor’ and instilled in me a strong desire to help others. While the Mount of course prepared me academically for college, it is this sense of purpose and mission that I am most grateful for.”
