The Benedictine monastery in Atchison, Kansas, begun by Mother Evangelista
Kremmeter and six other sisters, grew to establish many Catholic schools
in the midwest. At Mount St. Scholastica Academy and College, thousands
of young women received the education, preparation and training for their
future lives.
Many pupils at the Academy and College in Atchison entered the novitiate
and became Benedictine sisters in the schools operated by the sisters.
Some of these sisters were among the first women to receive master's
degrees and doctorates in the United States. Sister Helen Sullivan, for
example, (a native of Effingham, Kansas, in Atchison County, Kansas)
was honored at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C., for having
obtained
a Doctor of Philosophy degree in mathematics before 1940.
The listing of the sisters' writings attests to the educational achievements
of the Sisters of Mount St. Scholastica, Atchison, Kansas. Copies of
some of these writings are in the archives at Mount St. Scholastica.
