Audacious since 1881, Dana Hall School has always been dedicated to providing the vigorous education that every girl deserves--one that’s academically ambitious, rich with opportunity, and fiercely empowering.
Dana Hall is an independent school for bright and bold young women in grades 5-12. We are the only girls’ boarding school in the Boston area. Our Middle School serves day students in grades 5-8, and our Upper School serves boarding and day students in grades 9-12. Two divisions, one community that’s welcoming, open-hearted, and diverse.
Dana Hall seeks promising students who will tackle challenging coursework, dive fully and bravely into every endeavor, and uphold our culture of inclusion and kindness.
Ordinarily we would encourage you to visit campus, as seeing a school day in action is the best way to experience Dana Hall. However, due to the global pandemic, we have adapted our admission process to be virtual this year. Although our campus remains closed to visitors, our
admission team is committed to providing a warm and thoughtful experience for each applicant and her family.
