St. Mary’s Academy offers the advantage of an all-female environment.
Studies identify several areas in which single-gender education produces favourable outcomes for girls, especially in terms of their confidence, engagement and aspirations.
An all-girls setting has been shown to provide a certain comfort level that helps girls to develop greater self-confidence and broader interests. At SMA, young women are surrounded by positive role models and mentors. Our students see that girls are capable of aspiring to every role — in school productions, on sports teams and in leadership.
Research confirms that girls who attend all-girls’ schools have an edge in post-secondary education and in the professional world.
At SMA, we’re proud to witness the benefits an all-girls environment has for our students.
