Families Flock to Open House

Families flocked to the Academy of the Holy Angels to be part of the January 28 Middle School Open House. Guests learned about AHA’s all-girl advantage, the growing list of clubs, and unique programs like the middle school’s Women in Science and Engineering initiative, which allows students in Grades 6-8 to study with a Columbia University professor.

Open House attendees spoke with student ambassadors, the middle school faculty, members of the administration, and the AHA Admissions Team.

Guests heard about scholarship opportunities, and enjoyed personalized campus tours. Families were led by an Angel Ambassador from the upper school and a Halo Helper from the middle school. Together, these student teams answered many questions about life at the Academy.

Middle School Dean Traci Koval and the faculty shared details about curriculum, activities, performing arts, athletics, and more.

AHA Middle School, which opened in September of 2021, renews the Academy’s promise to educate girls as well as young women.

Founded by the School Sisters of Notre Dame in 1879, the Academy of the Holy Angels is the oldest private girls’ school in Bergen County. While AHA is steeped in Catholic tradition, this prestigious school serves young women from many cultural and religious backgrounds.

AHA’s current leaders continue to further the SSND mission to provide each student with the tools she needs to reach the fullness of her potential—spiritually, intellectually, socially, and physically, by offering a first-rate education in a nurturing environment where equal importance is placed on academic excellence, character development, moral integrity, and service to others.
