Life at Maur Hill-Mount Academy


  • The King

    The King

    Since Fr. Jeremy was ever so subtle about the importance of this chapter in the Scriptures, especially for high schoolers, there was a slight nudge from the Holy Spirit to post it on the blog. It’s too cold outside. So, grab some hot chocolate and take a minute to read 1 Samuel 8: Israel Asks for Continue reading

  • Ravens at SEEK24

    Ravens at SEEK24

    Life is full of worries and concerns. Winter gets cold, bleak and lonely. Relationships are complicated. Sometimes, hope is hard to come by. As a remedy, I suggest going to a SEEK conference at the end of which your heart will burst with hope and joy.  SEEK is an annual conference put together by FOCUS, Continue reading

  • St. Nicholas at Maur Hill-Mount

    St. Nicholas at Maur Hill-Mount

    In a world where self-sacrifice often goes unnoticed, it is not surprising that the story of real St. Nicholas fades into the background. His feast day quickly became one of my favorites after I learned his story as a mother. St. Nicholas lived in the 4th century in Myra, located in today’s Turkey. He was Continue reading

    Thanksgiving as an MH-MA Boarder

    Thanksgiving is an important and cherished holiday in the United States, typically celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November.

  • Trunk and Treat

    Trunk and Treat

    Our boarding students are so committed to Halloween that they refused to consider trivial things such as cold and rain as obstacles to their Trunk and Treat. Take a look at how our courageous students braved the inclement weather conditions to bring the children of Atchison candy and fun. We can all learn something from Continue reading

  • That Art Teacher

    That Art Teacher

    Do you remember our teachers testing out the new art teacher a while ago in the summer? We think she is doing a pretty good job after all. Well, at least, she is doing a pretty good job at putting all the amazing stuff our students create on the board. Well done, Mrs. Wallace! Continue reading

    Archbishop Naumann and His Regalia

    If you are a life-long Catholic, you may be accustomed to seeing different colored vestments and habits, the odd-looking hats churchmen wear and the staves they carry around hallways as if they are walking sticks. But, for non-Catholics and converts, the origin of these regalia is a curiosity. Archbishop Naumann came to offer Mass and Continue reading
