Founded in 1920, Nightingale is an independent K–12 girls' school deeply committed to fostering relationships within a rigorous academic environment. It is the joy encountered in the pursuit of intellectual adventure that distinguishes our educational experience; joy that develops within an environment of trust and support from teachers and peers. We champion empathy, integrity, and curiosity, which teach our students about one another, as well as themselves. Every student at Nightingale will find her unique voice, while learning to appreciate the other unique voices in our community. Within our blue doors, we educate both the minds and the hearts of our students. Along their educational journey, students learn the tools and knowledge to evolve into global citizens with the desire and power to effect positive change in the world. At Nightingale, the academic program is the foundation of a student’s journey as she learns to advocate for herself, have empathy for others, and view difference as a source of strength. The joy of learning remains paramount within our classrooms, and students carry that joy with them for a lifetime.
