From the Head of Boarding
I am so blessed to be working in the Santa Maria Boarding Community. I look forward to working with boarders, boarding parents, boarding staff and staff of the College to provide boarders with the very best opportunities while at Santa Maria College.
We will work together to provide broad and diverse opportunities, on and off-campus, in academic care and support and recreational activities. These opportunities along with the nurturing care provided for each member of our community will help develop young women who are responsible, resilient, independent, empathetic and extremely proud of their boarding community.Â
