What We Believe

When St. Angela Merici formed a company of women whose expressed purpose was to educate other women so that they could transform society one family at a time, her purpose and means were inclusive, not exclusive. When young women from different backgrounds move into the world beyond the campus of Ursuline Academy as competent, confident leaders whose values permeate every part of their lives, then families win, industry wins, communities win.

Ursuline Academy is deeply committed to actively creating a diverse school community and welcomes students of different ethnic, religious, family, socio-economic and geographic backgrounds.

It is our belief that diversity brings richness and meaning to life, and that exposure to a broad range of talents, perspectives and experiences better prepares the young women of Ursuline Academy for full participation in a multi-cultural city, nation and world.
