  • Annual Report 2020 WE MATTER Our Mission
    MOTHER CAROLINE ACADEMY AND EDUCATION CENTER Annual Report 2020 WE MATTER Our Mission Founded in 1993, Mother Caroline Academy is a tuition-free, independent school for girls grades 4-8. We serve Boston families with limited resources. Our mission is to provide a high quality education that develops the individual gifts of each student and prepares her for success in competitive secondary schools and colleges. Originally created in the Catholic tradition, the school is now fully independent. We recognize the dignity, value, and assets of each person. The Academy emphasizes the importance of scholarship, leadership, and social and moral development. We Matter What a year this has been! With the abrupt school closings on March 15, 2020, our ability to come together as a team was imperative for our students and their families. We quickly realized we would not be returning to school for some time and made every effort to stay true to our mission: “by focusing on the needs of the whole family and by preserving a spirit of volunteerism and commitment among all those who aid, support and benefit from MCAEC”. In the days after the school closing, we were able to connect with many donors committing to continued support. Additionally, Phill and Elizabeth Gross offered to help us to achieve our gala goal through a match challenge. This funding, coupled with a Covid Emergency Fund, provided us the opportunity to supply each student with a computer, upgrade our school building with a Nurse’s pod and isolation rooms, new floors, PPE, handwashing stations, and sneeze guards.
