I am a graduate of Connelly High School. It was my parents decision for me to attend a small, all-girls school and, as a rebellious teenager, I was reluctant. But that soon changed. Connelly offered me lifelong friends, inspiration, and a safe place to begin growing into my true self. The passionate teachers and engaging curriculum helped me gain direction and confidence at a critical time in my life.I recently visited the campus and it has only improved since I graduated several years ago. They now have an amazing visual arts center, a stunning athletic field, and they've made beautiful additions to their gardens throughout campus. The spirit of the place exudes exactly the same warmth and vibrancy that I remember.I really do not know where I would be today without having attended Connelly, for it was really in those classrooms that I was encouraged to develop my own way of embracing the world, and to really think about what matters and why. My experience there laid the foundation for everything I have done in my adult life.

My daughter is a Sophomore at Connelly. I can honest say she is thriving in the supportive and nurturing school. It is small but that is what makes it so special. The academics are rigorous but the environment is set up so that each student is given the personal attention they need to succeed. They strive to develop each girl's sense of personal responsibility so that they can become strong leaders in whatever educational field they pursue. The best part is all the girls are super, smart and really NICE! I have never been so impressed as I am with the young ladies at this school! They speak correctly, they are polite, poised and they really care about one another! I highly recommend Connelly!

My daughter came from a Catholic junior high school not really caring much about her grades . In less than 2 weeks at this school, I noticed a difference in my daughter who was blossoming into a confident young lady. She in now a sophomore with a very high GPA. It is astounding what this school has accomplished for her in a year and a half. The other girls in this school are also high achievers. Connelly fosters high sense of belonging, accountability and preparation for college academics. Kudos to the staff and administration.

As an alumna, I feel I had the best experience one could hope for from attending an all girl Catholic school. The instructors at Connelly were caring and truly wanted students to succeed and pushed us to do so. The rigorous academic curriculum definitely prepared me for college. I still maintain close friendships with girls from my class. I continue to live my life in the spirit of Cornelia Connelly, inspired to do my best in everything, always. With adversity, with faith, life continues. I feel fortunate to have attended such a wonderful school. I graduated from Connelly in the 80s. If we lived closer, my daughter would be there!

connelly is an amazing school, i have never felt more confident in myself and my abilities than i have at connelly. our teachers are so fantastic, they make learning fun and have taught me to study hard. connelly is a great fit for girls who are looking to prepare for college, learn a lot, and get away from the petty drama of junior high and that of a lot of the other private schools in the area. At connelly, girls dont bully eachother and there is no popularity contests among the students. we all come to have fun, learn, and make life long friends of quality.
