Curriculum Innovations at NCGS Member Schools
Model Programs for the Education of Girls and Young Women
Girls' schools have long been regarded as incubators of innovation, environments where the traditional and the cutting-edge combine to create an educational experience unlike any other. In this section, we examine cruicial curriculum topics and draw upon the full diversity of the NCGS Member School community to share the many insights, experiences and academic approaches that make all-girl education such an important feature of today's educational landscape.
Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM)
Girls' schools have long been leaders in promoting science, technology, engineering and math for young women. And today, these fields are more crucial than ever before.
That's why NCGS has created an entire website-within-a-website devoted to STEM learning and achievement. With classroom tools for teachers... fun sites and inspiring stories for students... and even advice and guidance for parents, ncgs.org/stem is designed to be a vibrant, always-growing resource for everyone devoted to educational excellence for girls and young women.
Global Citizenship & Leadership
Educating girls to participate fully in a 'world' of opportunities with confidence and competency is central to the girls' school mission. Knowledge of other cultures, a sense of global responsibility, and the leaderships skills to carry it all forward -- these are essential ingredients of a top-quality education.

Financial Literacy for Girls
There's a new version of "The Talk" these days.It's not about the birds and the bees. It's about money. How to earn it, how to save it, how to spend and use it wisely.For many parents, the prospect of having "The Money Talk" with their kids can be daunting. But educating girls to be money wise is a good investment.
Girls, Sports & Wellness
Participation in sports can yield a lifetime of benefits for girls and young women. Skills learned now -- leadership, teamwork, setting goals -- will last a lifetime. And healthy habits -- physical as well as mental -- learned today will be healthy habits that endure. That's why NCGS and its Member Schools place a premium on sports, fitness and wellness for girls and young woman: it's all an essential part of a top-flight education!
