Wellness at Every Stage:

Lower School (Kindergarten–Grade 4)

Our specialized wellness program features classes designed to build character through the creative use of the IB Learner Profile and support the top three social and emotional needs of girls in this developmental stage: 

  1. Navigating Friendships
  2. Developing Social Skills
  3. Problem Solving Among Peers

A full-time counselor serves on the Lower School faculty and offers individualilzed attention to the social and emotional needs of each student. Partnering with families as much as possible is a very important tenet of our program. Our girls are best supported when we work together as a team. 

MIDDLE SCHOOL (Grades 5–8)

Because of the transformative nature of early adolescence, the Middle School purposely addresses each girl's well-being as a whole. Weekly wellness classes are taught by our full-time counselor who offers individualized attention to our students' social and emotional needs inside and outside the classroom. The curriculum is designed so that girls get a higher level of age-appropriate instruction each year on the following topics:

  • Emotional Regulation
  • Midfulness
  • Social Problem Solving
  • Resiliance and Growth Mindset
  • Communication Skills, Including Advocacy and Conflict Resolution
  • Use of Social Media and Digital Tools 
UPPER SCHOOL (Grades 9–12)

In the Upper School, wellness is a priority—especially during a time when students are navigating identity, relationships, and increasing academic pressure. Through a required wellness course, students explore their values, reflect on who they are becoming, and build essential life skills, including:

  • Healthy communication
  • Boundary setting
  • Managing peer influence

With a dedicated team of counselors on campus, students have consistent, accessible support as they face the challenges of adolescence and the college process. For families, this means knowing your daughter is guided, supported, and equipped to care for her mental health while growing into a confident, self-aware young woman.
