More About Ursuline Academy
Ursuline Academy, located on an 11.5-acre historic campus in Uptown New Orleans, is a Toddler 1 through 12th grade Academy for girls. Founded in 1727 nearly 50 years before America, the Academy enjoys the distinction of being the first all-girls’ Catholic school in the United States. Convinced that the education of women was essential to the development of a civilized, spiritual and just society, the Ursuline Sisters influenced culture and learning in New Orleans by providing an exceptional education for its women.
Ursuline’s nurturing community is diverse by design and fuels every girl’s success. Students with different backgrounds, beliefs and talents feel part of a sisterhood at Ursuline. They learn from each other, celebrate each other, and raise each other up. At Ursuline, girls gain a deeper understanding of themselves and how to be successful in a global society. Starting in early childhood, the Academy’s Reggio Emilia-inspired approach builds each girl’s confidence, social-emotional resiliency, and appreciation of others. Continuing throughout the Academy, an all-girls’ environment empowers girls to challenge themselves, explore outside their comfort zones and expand what they are capable of achieving. Ursuline's educational approach combines tradition and innovation and is validated by its dedication to the moral, spiritual, intellectual, and social growth of each student.
As girls progress through Ursuline Academy, a highly interactive approach exposes them to increasingly complex concepts in STEM and the Arts that go beyond learning the material. Ursuline focuses on STEM and the Arts as equal partners to power this 21st-century learning. Ursuline Academy of New Orleans is the first all-girls school in Louisiana to implement a full K-12 engineering and computer science pathway program known as Project Lead The Way. The Academy also offers students the opportunity to grow outside of the classroom through participation in 11 varsity sports, which include numerous state championships. Ursuline’s large variety of clubs and extracurricular activities are designed to satisfy the needs and interests of any girl, at any age, in the Academy.
From the first female law professor at Loyola University New Orleans to a U.S. senator and a U.S. Army colonel, Ursuline girls learn to lead fearlessly. We celebrate girls for who they are and elevate their confidence to influence the world. Our community – diverse by design – fuels every girl’s success. At Ursuline, we blaze our own trails. It’s our legacy.
