      My daughter graduated from Miss Hall's in 2018. I can honestly say that it has MORE than prepared her for life in college. Of the many valuable lessons she learned, one of the most valuable is her ability to organize her time. MHS keeps students very busy, so time management is key, and this is a skill she has brought with her to college. She also learned so much from the amazing teachers, and often talks about how her classes at MHS were more challenging than some of the ones she takes in college! She also found her passion at MHS through her Horizons internship and that experience solidified her chosen career path. I am so proud of the authentic, courageous LEADER she has become, and I attribute that directly to her time at Miss Hall's.

      I have been going to Miss Hall’s for three years. There is no place where I have felt more able to take chances and get out of my comfort zones than here. I have formed a club and sport, been recommended and honored for an award (that I didn’t even think I would get), and I was in a MUSICAL! The connections I’ve formed here will be ones I know will last forever. These people are my family. And like every family, we’re not perfect, but we show up for each other, and we push each other to be better. And that’s what drew me to Miss Hall’s in the first place.
      I absolutely loved my experience at MHS! This school truly made me who I am and helped me to find my voice, for which I am forever grateful. The teachers are absolutely incredible and are so dedicated to their students. The memories you make at MHS are priceless!
