There are many ways to develop your intellectual gifts at
Saint Ursula Academy. The Academy provides a rigorous
college preparatory program that leads each student to
knowledge and self-discovery. Counselors and teachers
assist each student in selecting the appropriate balance
of College Preparatory and Honors coursework that is
best suited to her. You will be placed in courses based on
your ability in that specific discipline rather than being
on one set track across all disciplines. This allows you to
take accelerated courses in areas of strength while also
receiving a solid foundation in all disciplines.
