Fontbonne Academy is a secondary school for young women sponsored by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Boston.

For each student, the goal upon graduation is that she will have discovered the true reach of her abilities and be thoroughly prepared for high academic achievement in a college curriculum; she will have had spiritual experience and education that open her to the world heritage of humankind’s search for God; and she will have had a social experience in a diverse community that prepares her to live and work among peoples of many cultures. Fontbonne’s academic program, co-curricular activities, and daily life seek to instill in young women qualities of leadership, intellectual openness, social connection, and spiritual strength that will support the widest range of personal and professional choices they might make.
