100 Years of History

Sarah Whitaker and Dorothy Bement envisioned a school offering an education that would prepare young women for college entrance exams, not just marriage. The new place, like its founders, would operate with grace and pluck. In 1924, they welcomed the first Northampton School for Girls students. The school quickly established a reputation for academic excellence in an environment that emphasized simplicity and community. For nearly half a century, the school operated with verve, indelibly stamping the lives of women who passed through its doors and across its elegant lawns.

Today, 100 years later, the legacy of Northampton School for Girls lives on, reflected in a shared mission of a community where great teachers turn challenges into opportunities for learning, and where young women are encouraged confidently to set out and forge their own paths of individual expression.
