Benefits of Boarding
Preparing Girls for Life
Boarding school prepares students for college and life like no other educational environment. A study from The Association of Boarding Schools found that 78% of boarding school graduates felt well prepared for non-academic aspects of college life, such as time management, independence, and social life, compared to 36% of private day students.
Global Perspectives & Experiences
With a portion of our student body attending Saint Mary's from around the world, our students gain first-hand perspectives about different cultures and experiences by living alongside their peers. Many on and off-campus events are held throughout the year for students to gain knowledge on the many cultures that make up our student body.
Independence & Leadership
Living in a new environment provides opportunities for students to take healthy risks by stepping outside of comfort zones. Our boarding program offers more opportunity for leadership positions through initiatives like our Leadership Immersion Lab and student-held positions such as Boarding Prefects.
