I want to take this opportunity to share with you progress we are making on developing the 2025-2030 Strategic Plan. I am excited about the process and look forward to sharing the final result which will provide a vision for our common future as a school dedicated to “empowering generations of courageous, faith-filled women to be skillful builders of a better world.”

You did it…AGAIN! Thanks to your generosity, we not only met our fundraising goal for ALLINforAHN, but exceeded it! The new strength and training space for students, faculty, staff, and alumnae will be a reality. Thank you!

Congratulations go out to the seventh and ninth grade classes for raising the most funds in the class challenge and earning dress down days.

If you didn't have an opportunity to make a gift on Thursday, you can still do so by following the link provided.
