Academics
Educating young women for lives of critical
thought, responsibility, compassion,and service has been
the focus of SHA for 130 years. Needless to say, we have
a long history of providing a safe and caring learning
environment where young women are encouraged to learn, engage,
serve, lead and grow. As when we first opened our doors in
1877, we remain committed to ensuring that our students have
the necessary tools for leading purposeful and successful
lives and our faculty and staff work hard to ensure that the
needs of each student are met academically, socially and spiritually.
