The Montgomery Catholic high school campus proudly debuts a new class, Engineering Essentials, an experiential learning environment that will revolve around hands on projects like designing and testing rockets, building robots, planning and constructing bridges, and building catapults. The middle school campus will offer three new electives, allowing students to explore their God given gifts; including choir, drama and public speaking. Both elementary campuses will look a little different this year, construction on our brand new gym at our Holy Spirit campus will be completed this fall under the watchful eye of the new campus principal Matthew Monson, and our St. Bede campus courtyard is being refurbished as an outdoor classroom and early childhood recreation space. Finally, we are thankful to welcome Montgomery Catholic Alum Daniel Veres '93 back to campus to lead our Athletic Department as AD.

Montgomery Catholic has so many things to be thankful for in the upcoming school year. We look forward to our halls being filled again on August 13, the first day of school.

Montgomery Catholic Preparatory founded in 1873 is celebrating 140 years of preparing students for college and beyond will helping them to grow to be persons of Faith, Virtue,  and Wisdom.
