Description

The mission of School of the Holy Child is to develop "women of conscience and action." Holy Child is the only all-girls, Catholic, independent, college-preparatory school in Westchester County that provides an advanced, individualized education for grades 5-12. Because of the longstanding history of challenging young women to pursue academic excellence and find joy in learning, Holy Child is widely recognized as being the best at educating and mentoring students to become women of conscience and action.

The school currently enrolls students from nearly 70 communities in Westchester, Fairfield, Putnam, New York and Bronx Counties and offers girls purposeful and transformative experiences through innovative and unique programs in the humanities, global & religious studies, science & technology, engineering & architecture, arts & athletics, as well as personal and spiritual development through field-based and service learning opportunities. Faculty and staff work collaboratively with students and families to ensure each student is known and valued, and her academic and individual goals are supported.

Holy Child's 18-acre campus in Rye, blends old and new--it features a striking Tudor mansion dating back to 1930, as well as recently constructed academic and extracurricular facilities. A $6.5 million Capital Campaign was completed in the summer of 2015. The campus expansion included a Design Studio for students who participate in architecture, engineering and design courses as well as a 22,000 square-foot Field House that allows Holy Child teams to compete fully, fostering greater student participation in various activities and provides a diversification of physical education classes. The Field House is home to the 11,000 square-foot Kelly Gymnasium, Giordano Fitness Center, Ciaccia Athletic Training Room, dance studio, locker rooms and The Kennedy Common Room. The state-of-the art Theatre was completed in January 2016 and provides Holy Child students with a beautiful, new space that complements their exceptional talents.

Service learning plays a prominent part in the curriculum and in extracurricular offerings, as girls learn from early on that they can make a difference in the world. Technology skills are integral to the Holy Child educational program. With a 1:1 iPad and laptop program, course offerings in robotics, computer coding, and computer gaming are available to all students. Holy Child graduates are well prepared for the innovative and critical work of American universities and society. Graduates matriculate at a broad range of colleges and universities, including the nation's most selective institutions.

At Holy Child, every student is empowered to use knowledge, confidence, collaboration, vision and character to become her best self within the classroom and beyond.
