		+	The mission of Mount St. Mary Academy is based on the statement of Catherine McAuley who was the foundress of the Sisters of Mercy. She said, “No work of charity can be more productive of good to society... than the careful instruction of women." There is a lot of information provided by the main website, http://www.mtstmary.edu. St. Mary Academy was established to support Catholic families moving to Arkansas. Both Catholic and non-Catholic girls are welcomed to attend the school. However, the tuition for non-Catholic students is just over $500 more than that of Catholic students. It costs approximately $7, 210 for a Catholic girl to attend. In contrast, it costs approximately $7,790 for a non-Catholic student. More detailed information about tuition and a full-length history about the founding and charity work of the academy can be found at their website.
