OLMCA

Proud to report that a few of OLMCA's finest are headed to @SaintPatrickHS this fall! #GoRocks

The last weeks of school were jam-packed with activities and we're just catching up on sharing photos from all of the fun. Please enjoy these moments from the last day of a very *unique* but AMAZING school year at OLMCA! (Pictured: Last Day of School Prayer Service)

Wishing all the dads, grandfathers, uncles, and father figures in our community a very blessed and happy Father's Day!

Congratulations to our students who received their First Holy Communion this weekend at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church! May God’s blessings, love, and grace be showered upon them on this joyous occasion! 🌾 🍇

Happy Halloween, OLMCA Family! Be sure to check out all the photos from yesterday's Halloween Carnival and pumpkin decorating contest on our Flickr page (Flickr.com/olmca) Have a fun and safe night, everyone! 🎃 👻 🍭

Since we couldn't bring the students to the pumpkin patch, we decided to bring the pumpkin patch to them! Last Thursday, students roamed the church lawn in search of the perfect pumpkin and then took a scenic horse-drawn wagon ride in the east lot. We had a blast! 🍁🎃🍂🐴

Did you catch Fr. Pat and OLMC Church in the Sun Times this weekend? Enjoy the article and pictures from the annual blessing of pets, celebrating the Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi: chicago.suntimes.com/2020/10/3/2150…

On this World Teachers' Day, we thank the teachers of OLMCA who go above and beyond each day for their students, both in the classroom and online. Their dedication to the success of each child makes OLMCA the amazing school it is today! Show your appreciation in the comments!

Happening in Preschool: "After reading the book, 'I Like Myself,' we had a discussion about things that are special about each of us, what makes us proud or happy to be ourselves!"

#OnThisDay in 2013, OLMCA was named a National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education for the first time! OLMCA applied again in 2019 and received the Blue Ribbon for a second time making OLMCA one of only 4 elementary schools in Chicago to ever receive it twice!

#OnThisDay in 1846, the Sisters of Mercy began their work in education, charities, and healthcare in Chicago. OLMCA was founded in 1888 by the Sisters of Mercy who continued to serve the children of Mount Carmel through 1987.

Thank you to @NPNparents for organizing Sunday's Preschool and Elementary School Fair! We had a wonderful time chatting with families interested in choosing OLMCA for their children! 🎓❤️🙏
