School Reviews

5  
Since my son has been at Mount Moriah, I have watched him blossom in every way. He has drive and is self-motivated to learn and execute his work. He has become more confident in who he is, and his boldness in speaking up has grown because of the environment Mount Moriah encourages. One of integrity, courage, love, accountability, responsibility, self-control, and compassion. It has been the best decision I could have made for my son to begin his high school years.
