For over a century, Columbus School for Girls (CSG) has been a leader in the education of girls and young women. As it has since its founding, CSG is committed to being an educational institution that provides girls and young women with the skills to excel on an international stage and the tools to serve in leadership roles in a global society.  CSG aspires to develop in our young women the courage to work, unafraid and effectively, in a world of new needs, new problems, and new ideas. 

Today, as Central Ohio's only all-girls school, CSG is a vibrant community of more than 655 students, pre-kindergarten through grade 12, and offers a challenging college preparatory curriculum integrated in a continuum throughout each division in a collaborative and collegial environment.  CSG maintains an ideal student-faculty ratio of  9:1 with more than 65 percent of our faculty holding advanced degrees and is committed to continuing to support and develop their expertise. Students represent many communities in central Ohio and come from a variety of ethnic, religious, racial, and economic backgrounds.

Situated prominently in Bexley, a richly wooded and architecturally significant community only minutes from downtown Columbus, CSG's historic eight-acre main campus offers an ideal learning environment.  Additionally, the 70-acre Kirk Campus offers a track, two full-sized athletic fields, two soccer fields, a nature trails and a tennis center, all set in a beautiful wooded environment.  CSG students also enjoy 98 acres of land only minutes away that is preserved as a living laboratory.

Additional resources include an operating budget of more than $13 million with tuition fees ranging from $16,300 - $19,100, an endowment of $24 million, 150 faculty and staff members, and 2,500 active alumnae scattered across the globe.  A fully-staffed Development Department raises more than $1 million per year through the annual fund and special events.  Plans ahead call for significant capital fundraising for endowment and plant improvement to position CSG to continue to create an environment that is ideal for girls and young women to develop intellectually, emotionally, and socially.

CSG's Mission:  Columbus School for Girls, continuing a 100-year-tradition of excellence, provides a superior college preparatory education within a diverse and caring community that emphasizes leadership development in an atmosphere of moral and social responsibility.
