**Mission and Background**
The Mary Louis Academy in Jamaica Estates, NY is a Catholic college preparatory school for young women sponsored by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Brentwood, NY, and rooted in their charism of unity, reconciliation and inclusive love that embraces all of creation. In an atmosphere that fosters academic excellence and respect, we seek to empower young women to realize and value their own unique gifts - spiritual, intellectual, social - and to use their gifts as leaders in creating a just society. We are a community that celebrates cultural diversity and continues the Catholic tradition of service.

As a single gender school, we are aware of our unique opportunity to help our students appreciate their womanhood and to develop their gifts in an atmosphere which fosters academic excellence and respect. As educators, we provide an environment shaped by Christian ideals that nurtures the whole person by integrating faith and life. We foster an awareness of an active engagement in ecological stewardship. We recognize that shared partnership with parents and guardians in developing young women who will take responsibility for their life choices and value service to their community.
