Mount Carmel School vs. The Piarist School

Mt. Carmel School was founded in 1925 by Dr. Lela G. McConnell. We`ve been educating, mentoring, and equipping young people to be light in this dark world for a long time.

What transpired on this Eastern Kentucky mountaintop in the 1920s with a handful of college students has grown into a world-wide ministry.

The Kentucky Mountain Holiness Association, which grew from Mount Carmel School and its institutions and ministries, has touched every part of the earth.

A continuous line of young people have come and continue to come to Mount Carmel School from around the world to study.

Many have found Christ here and have begun their preparation to serve a needy world.

Most further their education in some of America`s best colleges, and many return to their country to be life-changers.

The Piarist School is a small, tuition-free, private, Catholic college-preparatory school for students in grades 7-12, which is located in Hagerhill, Johnson County, Kentucky.

The school is open to all students.  The School provides a college preparatory education, involving the development of an educational community which includes parents, teachers, students, and members of the local community as co-workers in promoting the physical, intellectual, and spiritual growth of the students.

The school is not just a place for the conveyance of subject matter to objects to be educated, but is one where the creativity needed for continuous renewal of society thrives and where formal and in-formal education are so integrated that the school becomes a center for social and cultural activities.
