Founded in 1833 by the Sisters of the Visitation, the Academy teaches its students to “Live Jesus” and emulates the virtues of joy, humility, simplicity, reverence and respect in everyday life. The Lower School includes both a coed Montessori preschool through Kindergarten and an all-girls program in grades 1 through 6; the Upper School offers a rigorous college preparatory curriculum for young women grades 7 through 12.
