The St. Hubert Difference

The St. Hubert tradition upholds a standard of excellence while encouraging students to make the most of the best four years of their lives. In that time, their talents and interests emerge through the many opportunities we offer. At St. Hubert, we educate the whole person, and we educate for life.
The All-Girls Advantage
High school is a time of learning, discovery, and fun. It is also the time when girls develop their self-concept and inner strength. Single-sex education gives girls a distinct advantage in life. In an all-girls school, female students are the leaders, and their role models are primarily women. They are encouraged to find their voice and be active both in and out of the classroom. Nothing stops them from being independent and successful.
In 2005, the U.S. Department of Education reviewed decades’ worth of educational research. A significant majority of the studies found that, in single-sex education, girls:
- score higher on achievement tests,
- choose more challenging courses,
- have higher educational and career aspirations,
- participate more in athletics, and
- are much more likely to pursue a career in the fields of math, science, or computers.
A 2009 British study even revealed that girls who struggle academically when they begin high school improve considerably more in a single-sex environment.
Without a doubt, an all-girls school like St. Hubert allows students to become confident, well-rounded young women who reach their full potential.
