High School Programs
High school is a critical time for developing young women who are prepared to lead with confidence, integrity and a desire to serve others. Our programs help young women seek excellence in their daily activities at home and school, to use their talents in the service of others, and to see their work as a student in the larger context of a flourishing life.
