Why All Girls?

ALL GIRLS LEADS TO BETTER RESULTS

After 64 years of educating young women in the Dominican tradition, we are experts in helping young women to discover their talents, stand up, and take the lead. The world needs more female leaders and we are passionate about developing them. Data, as well as our firsthand experiences shows that an all-girls environment is more effective at helping young women achieve their greatest potential than coeducational schools.

ALL GIRLS GIVES HER THE SPOTLIGHT

At Regina Dominican young women take center stage. There are no barriers to keep them from opportunities to learn, explore, use their voice, and lead. This creates the best environment for her to be her best self.  

The greatest gift you can give a young woman is confidence and self-esteem. That is easier to do at an all-girls school where we encourage her to use her voice and we create pathways to pursue ANY field, by eliminating any preconceived stereotypes. She learns, with an unshakable confidence, that all opportunities are open to her and her ideas are valued.

ALL GIRLS IS A COMPETITIVE EDGE

According to research collected by the National Coalition of Girls’ Schools, graduates of all-girls’ schools are more likely than those attending coeducational schools to impact their communities; perform better academically; consider majoring in math, science or technology; and have higher aspirations and greater motivation. At Regina Dominican, our focus on the Dominican value of veritas and our organizational value of caritas is powerful, allowing students to become their best selves.

ALL GIRLS DON’T LET ANYTHING STAND IN HER WAY

For a parent, the ability to help your daughter build her self-esteem and confidence is EVERYTHING. That is easier to do in an All-Girls school where we encourage her voice and we create pathways to pursue ANY field, by eliminating any preconceived stereotypes. She learns, with an unshakable confidence, that all opportunities are open to her.

In fact, at Regina Dominican, in the past four years 37% of our graduating students have declared pursuing a STEM major.

 

ALL GIRLS CREATES CONNECTIONS

An often overlooked benefit of an all-girls school is the opportunity to build strong relationships. Whether that is building lifelong friendships, finding role models or mentors, or having the support of an advocate who truly understands you and your goals, there is something amazing that happens when girls connect and support each other.

At Regina Dominican, our students take care of each other. They have fun together. They stick up for each other. They celebrate each other’s successes. Within our supportive, joyful environment, we empower young women with the ability to form loyal, supportive relationships with other girls or women now or later in life.

An All Girls’ school also provides a wealth of peer and alumni role models and supporters. More great connections! Our strong alumni network reaches out to mentor students and support them with internships and job opportunities.

ALL GIRLS DEVELOP LEADERSHIP SKILLS

Year after year, we have seen how our philosophy, curriculum, environment, and extraordinary educational experience has launched generations of inspiring and successful women. Our faculty and staff will challenge your daughter to excel, teach her to be a confident leader in her community, and inspire her to live up to her full potential.

ALL GIRLS IS POWERFUL

Regina Dominican is where your daughter can learn that there is enormous potential and power in being a young woman, and nothing can stand in her way.
