The Class of 2019 is 100! 100! 100!

100% of the 46 students earned merit-based scholarships totaling more than 3.3 million for one year and $13.3 million over 4 years!
100% of the 46 students matriculate to 4-year colleges or universities
100% of the 46 students graduate on time

All the positions of influence and responsibility here are held by women. In a coed school, lots of the opportunities would go to boys! But here I have great role models to look up to, and l can express myself freely. I am grateful that I have had the opportunity to grow into a woman at Holy Names.

The Girls' School Advantage

We believe in the limitless potential of girls. Our mission is to develop confident women who are inspired to lead lives of purpose and impact.

An outstanding all-girls education isn't just a matter of separating girls and boys. We draw upon all we know about the way girls grow and learn. We also let them be themselves. Nothing stands in the way of their dreams or reaching their full potential.

The proof of this approach is well documented. Survey results from graduates of all girls schools show that:

Top 10 Percent

Graduates consistently assess their abilities, self-confidence, engagement and ambition as either above average or in the top 10 percent.
Leadership Opportunities

93% agree that girls' schools provide greater leadership opportunities than coed schools.
Confidence

They have more confidence in their mathematics and computer abilities and study longer hours.
Girls' School Attendance

90% would probably or definitely attend a girls' school if they had to do it all over again.
College Preparation

93% are very or extremely satisfied with their preparation for the academic challenges of college.
Professional Choices

Three times as many alumnae of single-sex schools plan to become engineers.

A Liberating Experience

In a single-sex school, a girl can comprehend her value and her capabilities in ways that have nothing to do with how she looks or whom she dates. She can be free to experiment and explore, trying out new things and trying on new roles. She can follow her ambitions without wasting a second thought or a backward glance on how her male counterparts might perceive her.
