This is the front of MMI Preparatory School. On the right is MMI's athletic and drama complex, while in the center is the entrance into the courtyard, and on the left is the Old Main building.

When they first set foot upon MMI, many visitors remark how similar the school feels to a small college campus.

Indeed, the students, teachers, and staff enjoy a sense of inspiration, comfort, and safety here.

“MMI is more than just textbooks,” said MMI President Dr. William A. Shergalis ‘58. “We’ve developed a supportive, familial atmosphere of companionship and friendship that makes MMI a fantastic part of the lives of everyone who learns, teaches, and works here,” he said.

MMI Vice President Thomas G. Hood said the school’s atmosphere and small class sizes are important factors when it comes to students’ grades.

“Students want to feel safe and secure. They want their teacher to be interesting, fun, and adaptive. They want to be challenged. They want to be understood and appreciated as a person. They want to be part of something that is truly unique. And I believe that’s what MMI offers,” Hood said.

MMI Director of Admissions Kim McNulty sees first hand the impression MMI makes on families.

“I have welcomed many families on visits to MMI, and they are always pleasantly surprised to find what is essentially a small pre-college campus. Parents have many positive reactions. They enjoy how friendly our students of all ages are. They are impressed by the effort we have placed on creating a challenging curriculum that prepares their children for college. They are thankful that our teachers are open, welcoming, and responsive to the students’ needs,” McNulty said.
