As a freshman, I have only been at Ursuline for the past year, but all that I have experienced was way beyond my expectations. Some of my favorite parts of Ursuline academy are the strong bonds between between students and the sisterhood that is exemplified throughout school activities and events.

I love Ursuline because of the sisterhood, strong education, and competitive sports teams. Everyone is very inclusive and supportive of each other. Teachers will go out of there way to make sure you are getting the education you need. Ursuline is a loving, kind, and caring community.
