Learn About Enrollment

Small class sizes, passionate teachers, and a commitment to rigor and mastery in the classroom drive our students’ academic growth.

Social-emotional learning is embedded into the curriculum as well as the overall school culture, providing students with the resources and support to guide and empower them through their middle school years and beyond.

Social-Emotional Learning

Movement both optimizes learning potential, boosts cognition and memory, and ignites a positive self-image in students. Students witness their capacity for growth and strength in movement, which translates powerfully in the classroom. Kinesthetic learning is infused throughout the school day to enhance daily lessons.

Girls’ schools are places where girls take center stage. Graduates of girls’ schools are more likely to pursue STEM careers and leadership positions. Girls’ schools empower girls to find their voices and learn how to use them, and inspire girls to imagine and explore novel possibilities for their lives and futures.
