Miss Hall's School is one of the oldest all girl's preparatory boarding school's in the country. The school was first open in 1898's and started as a leadership school for women, viewed by most as a finishing school for girls, at that time. Miss Hall's has become one of the finest all girls schools in the nation. We had a chance to tour Miss Hall's a couple of year's ago, and visited the faculty and the girls on campus. It is a wonderful school, and its current Director of Admission Ms. Kim Bolland, is equally as gracious, to host several consultants on our New England tour, at during the fall.
Most of the history of Miss Hall's, is surrounded by its history of Ms Hinsdale Hall, who started the school during the 1800's as a leadership school. Horizons which has now become a part of the school's leadership model, in preparing girls for the future, is a wonderful program. This is a terrific model for the school, which helps girls to become leaders for the future.
Enrolling most of its girls in schools like Vassar, Smith, Welsley, are just a few of the prestigious schools which admit students from Miss Hall's. The school was actually rebuilt in 1909 after a tragic fire destroyed it's orginal building.
We have been to several schools in the east, both single gender and co educational boarding schools, and believe, Miss Hall's and Miss Porter's are our choices. Miss Hall's is our favorite, all girls school, in addition to many other schools in the area. Our tour included several other schools located cl0se by. We found the girls at Miss Hall's to be very hospitable. Very knowledgable, very diverse culturally, Many of the girls come from all over the world, representing 20 different countires, ranging from China, Pakistan, Korea, China, Africa, Carribean, coutries in Eastern Europe, and the Ukraine.
We spoke to several of the girls, from New York and surrounding states, and toured the dorms, classroom, visited classes in session, and spoke directly to faculity during our tour with the girls as they spoke about the entire campus for this all girls boarding school. Present enrollment is at about 188 students. This is a perfect match for a small classroom size of 12 in each class and the match for the right student. All of the girls we had aquaintance, were very disciplined, very much the kind of girls you would see in any private or public school, and clearly leaders of the future. The curriculum is college prepatory focus, and all the girls were accepted or planning on attending college.
The curriculum has strong academic presence. Miss Hall prides itself in sending their girls to the best schools in the country.

The activities for girls include: alpine skiing, lacrosse, tennis, basketball, softball, among other sports.
