Oldfields School’s Mission is to embrace each student’s authentic self,

educate through collaboration, empower the individual voice,
and inspire confidence and continual growth, leading to a life of purpose.

Why Oldfields?

BECAUSE AN ALL-GIRLS’ EDUCATION IS LIFE-CHANGING

At a time with so many outside influences defining who a girl should be, Oldfields provides a place free from that pressure—where girls can focus on who they are and what passions they wish to pursue. Research tells us that young women in single-gender schools have stronger self-esteem, greater self-confidence, broader leadership opportunities, and higher aspirations. Nothing could better describe an Oldfields girl. 
 
As Maryland’s first all-girls’ boarding school, we have a long history of forging opportunities for young women. Every Oldfields girl is—and always has been—encouraged to find her voice and to use it with confidence. Our girls are empowered to take risks and work hard to develop the strength of compassion, integrity and intellect they will need in college and beyond.

Visit Oldfields 

The very best way to experience Oldfields School is in person, but we also offer a variety of virtual opportunities to connect with our students and key program directors. Whichever option is best for you, we can’t wait to share all there is to love about Oldfields!
