The School

  • St. Margaret’s School is a community that cares deeply about girls; the school has been dedicated to education, development and well-being for over a century. Together, the school helps girls become powerful learners with the knowledge, attitudes and courage to thrive – in their studies and careers, and in life.
  • Small-scale learning environment provides teachers with the fl exibility to personalize learning for each student – building upon individual passions, and challenging each girl to improve her own performance, exceed her own expectations and realize her own potential.
  • Academic program is supported by experiential programs that provide opportunities for students to apply their knowledge, take on positions of responsibility and leadership, and develop a desire and a passion for making a difference. Each girl will discover a lot about herself, her peers and the world in which she lives through the experiences she has here.
  • The school believes in the all girl environment, because the school sees the results every day. Here, girls have the freedom to be daring, explore, try new things and try on new roles. The school continually raises girls’ expectations of themselves, and has found that they are more than up for the challenge. They excel academically because they participate fully and enthusiastically in the classroom; they make challenging career choices because they are confi dent in their ability to succeed in any subject; and they believe in their futures because they are certain of their worth and their potential.
