Open House

An open
house event is set for Wednesday,
October 16th 2013
from 5pm until 7pm at Montgomery County’s
newest private academy! Now the difference between a public and quality private
education can be as little as $500 a month!



This
spring Saint Miriam Parish in Blue Bell, PA did something that most Catholic
parishes wouldn’t even think of doing…they opened a school! Saint Miriam
believes it is furthering its mission to fulfill an original vision for an
inclusive, liberal, Catholic education with the founding of Saint Miriam Academy. They are very
excited about what this will mean to the community and their parish life
together.



The
school is being rolled out in three phases beginning with Pre-School and
Kindergarten aged children to eventually house a fully operational K-8 Grade
educational community.
