BRAVE
BRILLIANT
BOLD
Step onto campus and you feel it immediately. It’s an energy, a current, almost impossible to put into words. The air crackles with new ideas, fresh opportunities. Confidence is high, smiles are wide.
The feeling — and the fact — is that we’re thriving. The work we’ve done together over the past few years has put us in a position of strength. And that’s precisely why we’ve chosen this moment to go even further: braver, more brilliant, bolder.
Our Girls Thrive: Brave, Brilliant, Bold strategic plan is all about elevating and expanding excellence in every sense of the word. We will continue to offer an exemplary education, tailored to the talents, aspirations, and needs of girls. We will deepen our long-standing strength in ethical leadership, especially with the opening of the Leadership Center for Athletics, Wellness, and Performing Arts. To ensure that our students are at their best, we will build up systems and structures that bolster their health, well-being, and sense of belonging. And to underline the powerful impact and lifelong legacy of our Kent Place alumnae, we will strengthen our sisterhood.
This is how girls thrive.
Mission
Kent Place empowers girls to be confident, intellectual, and ethical leaders who advance the world.
Vision
We envision Kent Place as the defining institution for girls education, empowering our graduates to lead with ethical conviction, connection, and purpose at high levels of decision-making, influence, and responsibility.
Priority 1
An Empowering Education
Academic excellence at Kent Place School is the pursuit of intellectual growth designed to empower girls to advance the world. This happens through challenging, durable, interdisciplinary, and purposeful learning experiences. Our community invites students to explore the human experience with agency, flexibility, and joy. The result is graduates who not only excel in the next stage of their education but also engage with intention: thinking deeply, acting ethically, and leading collaboratively and with confidence.
Priority 2
Leadership for Impact
Developing ethical leaders is at the heart of the Kent Place mission. All students should have the opportunity to become innovative leaders and community builders for good. This priority continues developing, supporting, and enhancing our leadership and ethics programs, which are designed to empower girls to act and make decisions rooted in curiosity, moral courage, and ethical thinking.
Priority 3
Every Girl, Every Day
Focused on well-being, belonging, optimism, and sisterhood, the Kent Place community is committed to helping girls thrive every day and for a lifetime. We are designing structures and systems that build, support, include, and celebrate each girl as she grows and learns to use her resources, incorporate feedback, and develop habits of resilience.
Priority 4
Strengthening Our Sisterhood
Sisterhood is the differentiator of the Kent Place experience: a shared responsibility to lifelong learning, investment, engagement, and connection among all Kent Place girls and alumnae for generations to come. Stewardship of our school and our mission is essential to continuing what sets us apart.
