admissions process - girls together

Finding the best “fit” for your child and your family is the ultimate goal of our admissions process. It is about finding a learning environment where your daughter can thrive and grow and where the mission and philosophy of the school match the educational goals and values of your family.

Our objective is to ensure that all of our students are best placed for success and to provide them with a learning environment where they will develop and grow to be their best selves.

I look forward to meeting you and your daughter as we guide you through this process.
