The All-Girl Advantage
At Holy Child, every girl is known and valued and encouraged to be her best self within the classroom and beyond. Girls occupy every role: every seat in the classroom, every part in the school play, every position in student government, and every position on every team.
Research shows that all-girls school graduates are more academically engaged, demonstrate higher self-confidence in STEM subjects, and are more likely to seek leadership opportunities compared to their co-educated peers.
The Holy Child Advantage
We capitalize on girlsโ unique learning styles with an emphasis on cooperation, hands-on learning, discussion, and experience. We create a culture of achievement in which highly motivated girls are empowered to become the next generation of courageous and compassionate leaders.
Girlsโ school grads are 6x more likely to consider majoring in math, science, and technology, compared to girls who attend co-ed schools.
3/4 of girlsโ school grads consider college a stepping stone to graduate school.
93% of girlsโ school grads are very or extremely satisfied with their schoolโs ability to provide individualized attention.
