Mayfield is a Catholic, independent, college preparatory school for young women grades 9-12, sponsored by the Society of the Holy Child Jesus and guided by the educational philosophy of the Society's foundress, Cornelia Connelly.

At Mayfield, you will experience a nurturing community “where your gifts come alive.” You will receive an excellent academic education and have the opportunity to participate in a classically oriented Conservatory for the Arts and outstanding athletic program. At Mayfield, we are also deeply committed to our students’ emotional and spiritual development.
