Our Program

At Castilleja, we understand that how girls learn is just as important as what they learn.

Castilleja girls learn deeply, strengthen their voices, and make empowering choices through interdisciplinary problem-solving and real world engagement. Our academic program is grounded in a culture of care, allowing students to build confidence and resilience as they take initiative, find purpose, and practice agility. Understanding the importance of making connections from one course to another and one year to the next, each girl has the freedom and responsibility to find the threads that weave together ideas that inspire her to continue exploring and learning.
