The Sisters from Canada established the first community in the United States at Glens Falls, New York. In 1886 this was followed by a boarding school in Island Pond, Vermont. Other foundations (mostly parochial schools) were set up in Maine; Methuen, Massachusetts (9–12 Presentation of Mary Academy); Hudson, New Hampshire (K-8 Presentation of Mary Academy), and Rhode Island. In 1933, Rivier College of liberal arts was established in Nashua, New Hampshire. In 1938 the communities in the United States became independent of those in Canada.
