Mount Merici Academy

Mount Merici Academy Mount Merici Academy is an Ursuline School serving children from age six weeks through Eighth-grade Angela Merici, foundress of the Ursuline Sisters.

Our Mission:
Mount Merici Academy, a Catholic school, is dedicated to nurturing the whole child - mind, body, and spirit - providing love and guidance so that students can achieve their personal best. In partnership with families, our mission is to instill the values of respect, responsibility, and self-discipline, teaching students in the Ursuline Serviam tradition of service to our community and

the world. Ursuline Educational Mission:
At the heart of Ursuline education is the Gospel call to mission and the living spirit of St. Grounded in this call and in this spirit, Ursuline education is relationship-centered, with attentiveness to and respect for the unique gifts, potential, and needs of each individual. It is an educational vision that fosters the development of the whole person – spirit, mind, and body – in a nurturing community environment. As Jesus and St. Angela were both attuned to the needs of those around them, Ursuline education seeks to form servant-leaders, open to and engaged in the ever-changing global reality in which they are called to live and serve.

Join us as we celebrate the Mount Merici Academy Class of 2026 8th-grade graduates!

Today, we recognize and celebrate Abby Brown!

Abigail has been a valued member of the Mount Merici Academy community and says she will miss the teachers, her friends, and the close-knit feeling of her small class the most. Her favorite memory from MMA is playing volleyball with her classmates.

Abigail's advice to younger students is "Never let what somebody else says change what you do."

She will attend Messalonskee High School and, in the future, hopes to attend a Division 1 college to play basketball and become a veterinarian.

MMA is so proud of you, Abby, and we look forward to seeing all that you will accomplish in the future!

At Mount Merici Academy, education goes far beyond the classroom!

With the beautiful weather yesterday, our students took their learning outside. Our 7th and 8th-grade students visited Colby College for a science lab with Professor Graham and explored macroinvertebrates at Johnson Pond, while our younger students planted in the garden and learned about the life cycle of a butterfly!

Our students are always eager to learn and explore new opportunities.

Today, we recognize and celebrate Juniper Angelini!

Juniper has brought kindness, creativity, and imagination to the MMA community. Throughout her time at MMA, her teachers have described her as an incredible artist with a creative mind and spirit. Juniper also enjoys playing the violin.

Some of Juniper's favorite memories include beating the teachers in volleyball during Catholic Schools Week, the Quebec trip, and playing cross net outside. Spending time with her class is what she says she will miss the most.

She will attend Messalonskee High School, and in the future, Juniper hopes to attend a good college and pursue her interests with success. Her advice to younger students is simple: "Enjoy your class while you have them, and don't wish your younger years away."

We at MMA are so proud of you, Juniper, and cannot wait to see all that lies ahead.
