Visitation Academy

Viz: Start Here. Grow Here. BE Here.

With nearly 200 years of experience educating girls—and doing so exceptionally well—Visitation Academy understands the power of an all-girl environment. Serving students in the Lower School (Grades 1–5), Middle School (Grades 6–8), and Upper School (Grades 9–12), Viz nurtures a love of learning in its students, who consistently rank among the highest achievers in the region. Viz also offers a coed Montessori program for Toddlers through Kindergarten.

The call to “Be who you are and be that well” shapes the school’s academic and spiritual life. More than a motto, it is an invitation for each student to recognize and cultivate her individual gifts. Girls flourish in an environment that empowers them to BE—intellectually challenged, creatively engaged, athletically motivated, personally inspired, emotionally supported, spiritually enriched, and genuinely valued for who they are.

Since 1833, Visitation Academy has cemented its legacy as the place to BE.

NEW PROGRAM HIGHLIGHT
Viz’s Fellowship Program sets the Upper School apart. Fully launched in 2025–2026, this four-year experience builds leadership and real-world skills through self-discovery, career exploration, mentorship, and a final symposium showcasing each student’s journey.
