Montgomery Catholic Elementary Campuses Start the Year with Fun

Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School's  St. Bede and Holy Spirit campuses start the year off learning the rules and getting to know each other. Mrs. Mary Pear's sixth grade class at the MCPS St. Bede campus kicked off the year with a friendly game of "Dot Math". Nicolas Calandra and Grant Eady compete to see who can win the game by connecting dots to make the most squares and answering fun math questions correctly.  While at the Holy Spirit campus Austin Taylor and Aubrey Sadler from Mrs. Mary Walker's K4 class were the first students to visit the treasure box in Mrs. Ceasar's office. Following the rules is a BIG deal in K4, and these two students were rewarded for being safe, respectful and responsible.

Montgomery Catholic teachers, students and their families are excited about this new school year. 

Montgomery Catholic Welcomes New Families to Campus

The Berg Family

Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School welcomed back their families on Sunday, August 14 with a Back to School Mass and Street Party. Reverend Augusty Puthanpura, Pastor of St. Peter Catholic Church celebrated Mass in the Middle/High School Chapel and afterward students and their families were welcomed back to campus by the Marching Knights in the school courtyard before Jim 'N Nicks BBQ was served for dinner in the Dolly Barranco Activity Center.

The excitement of a new school year is always a gift for the Montgomery Catholic family. It is always with great joy and prayer, that the school serves our community. While maintaining our mission, this year will have us introducing new and innovative ideas at all of our campuses and building for the future of  Montgomery Catholic!
