The All-Girls Advantage
Presentation encourages students to understand and celebrate the power and potential of being a woman. The All-Girls Advantage
Presentation is a place where young women feel confident raising their hands, using their own voices, and being themselves. In this supportive and empowering environment, young women can explore new interests and feel a sense of self-assurance while developing their minds, opening their hearts and discovering their individuality.
Just think The best calculus student at Presentation is a young woman. The top debaters and fastest runners are young women. The Robotics Team, the Film and Media Club, Student Council, the Math and Science Academy—all are driven by talented young women. When students see and experience—in classrooms, on playing fields, in science labs, on stage—that there’s nothing a girl can’t do, barriers vanish. The sky is the limit.
All-Girls Education We believe, and research affirms, girls in a single-sex environment succeed well beyond their counterparts across the nation. They demonstrate greater academic achievement, earn higher test scores, become more involved in school activities, develop higher self-esteem and assume more leadership positions throughout their lifetime.
Notice of Non-Discriminatory Policy as to Students Presentation High School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.

“What I value most from Presentation’s single-sex education is the confidence it provides young women; the confidence to explore academic unknowns, to engage in diverse extra-curriculars, and to grow in spiritual development. Pres girls are encouraged to perform at the best of their abilities, which stems from an environment of empowerment unique to single-sex education. Seeing that every accomplished student is female, shows a tangible example that women can achieve anything. I am truly appreciative of Presentation’s all-girl advantage for giving me the confidence to go forth as a young woman capable of achieving my goals.”
