Mother Teresa Catholic school earns Middle States Distinction

The Middle States Association Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools (MSA-CESS) has recognized Mother Teresa Regional Catholic School in King of Prussia for its Programs of Distinction in STEM, Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.

The Middle States Programs of Distinction initiative provides external validation of an accredited school’s accomplishments in specific areas of expertise and enables schools to take accreditation to the next level.

“Programs of Distinction are meant to be models for other academic programs throughout the world, and that is certainly true of the STEM programs at Mother Teresa and Our Lady of Mercy,” said Henry G. Cram, Ed.D., president of MSACESS. “These schools are to be commended for their commitment to STEM education and for recognizing the importance of preparing students for 21st century careers.”
