Scoil Mhuire is an Irish co-educational post-primary school owned by the Irish government and controlled by a board of management with ten members: two parents, two teachers, and six representatives from the trustees who are Kildare V.E.C. and the Presentation Sisters. The Presentation Sisters founded the secondary school, which was changed to community school status in 1983 when the school moved into the present building. They have completed an extension and sports hall to the school.
