Emma Willard School - (518) 833-1300

Since 1814, Emma Willard School has been a leading boarding school for girls. At Emma, we share a love of learning and something completely unique—a fun, supportive environment created to help our girls realize their undeniable potential.

At Emma Willard, our students learn that there is enormous potential and power in every girl. In our classrooms, on our athletic courts, within science labs, and on stage, life-long lessons are learned in daring to participate in, shape, and serve our world. Girls excel at Emma, and their ambitions are as varied as their talents. Both inside and outside of the classroom, we encourage the aspirations of each girl. From our personalized study programs to our status as the first Fair Trade High School in the nation, we challenge our girls to develop their minds and hearts to the fullest and put their talents to good purpose.

The view from Mount Ida is one of intentional diversity. With girls coming from across the United States and around the world, our campus is a truly unique cosmopolitan community. Here, our girls learn firsthand about the cultures, traditions, and values that shape our world—more than they could ever learn from books—and all within an environment that respects and encourages the expression of personal identity.
