Our students learn both in and out of the classroom through signature opportunities like our Leader and Writer in Residence programs, global travel, Global Entrepreneurship, and January Term, among others. Students also get to experience learning outside the confines of the AP curriculum through Advanced Courses.
Students thrive in our 24/7 community with the support of adult and student leaders on campus. With round the clock care by Dorm Advisors, nurses, and security, our girls are safe and secure at all times of the day. Our close-knit community offers our girls the perfect chance to broaden their views, meet people from all walks of life, and choose courage over comfort.

Located in Pruden Hall, the Health Care Center (HCC) is open and available to students 24/7, and is run by our team of experienced nurses. The HCC is also home to a full-time licensed counselor who assists students with a variety of aspects related to mental health and wellness. Should students need resources beyond what the HCC can provide, a nurse practitioner visits campus weekly and a variety of specialists, medical centers, and hospitals are located in the region.
Dorm Advisors
We intentionally surround our students with dynamic adults who are in various stages of life so that you can seek support and wisdom from all kinds of people. Dorm Advisors live on dorm with the students and often partner with Prefects, our student dorm leaders, to provide support and activities for the dorm floor or hall. If you have a question about dorm life, your dorm advisor is a great resource.
Security
Security staff is on duty round the clock while students are on campus. We also have a team of residential faculty including study hall proctors, dorm advisors, nurses, and administrators who are always on-call. All doors are locked and accessible only with security key cards that are distributed to members of the Chatham Hall community. All visitors are required to sign in and out of Pruden Hall when they are on campus.
