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.
