At a Glance

A Small All-Girls Religious School With Extraordinary Personal Attention

Best suited for

Families seeking an intimate, all-girls environment with religious values and extraordinary individual attention. This is ideal for parents who prioritize close teacher-student relationships above diversity or a wide range of extracurriculars, and who are comfortable with a homogeneous community that shares specific religious and cultural values.

What stands out
  • Remarkably small size with a 3.8:1 student-teacher ratio — among the lowest ratios you'll find in any NYC private school
  • All-girls learning environment, which can foster confidence and leadership opportunities for teenage girls
  • Religious affiliation with the Church of God in Christ provides values-based education
  • Total enrollment of only 173 students means every girl is known by name
Things to consider
  • The student body is 100% White — families seeking diversity should weigh whether this aligns with their values
  • Very small size means limited extracurricular options and social dynamics compared to larger schools
  • Religious affiliation may be more pronounced than typical secular private schools
  • The community is insular and may not prepare students for diverse college or professional environments
IdentityThe Extraordinarily Low Student-Teacher Ratio Suggests A Deep Commitment To Individualized Attention And Close Mentorship. As A Single-Girls Religious School, The Philosophy Likely Emphasizes Both Academic Excellence And Values-Based Education Within A Community Of Peers Who Share Similar Backgrounds And Expectations.

An all-girls private secondary school affiliated with the Church of God in Christ, serving grades 9-12 with an extremely small enrollment of 173 students.

CommunityHomogeneous

The student body is entirely White (100%), making this one of the least diverse schools in the city. With only 173 students across four grades, the community is tight-knit and intimate — think of it as an extended family rather than a typical school.

NeighborhoodMadison

Located in the Madison neighborhood of Brooklyn, a residential area near Avenue R. This is a family-dense part of Flatbush/Midwood, characterized by single-family homes and small apartment buildings. The school sits in a traditionally Jewish and Caribbean area of Brooklyn, though this particular school draws from a different community.

The school is accessible by foot in this Brooklyn neighborhood, with typical urban infrastructure — sidewalks, crosswalks, and nearby public transit options.
