At Lauralton Hall, community is everything. I am constantly supported by peers who celebrate each other’s strengths and by teachers who genuinely care about my growth. Whether in the classroom, on the field, or during our school traditions, I know I am apart of something bigger than myself. Lauralton is a place where young women are encouraged to rise together."
I knew I wanted a place that would push me academically, and Lauralton Hall was exactly what I was searching for. But it wasn't just about the challenge; it was also about the environment I was in. There's such a strong, supportive community at Lauralton Hall – a real sense of sisterhood that makes you feel like you belong, right from day one. It's the perfect combination.”
At Lauralton Hall, the teachers strive to help us become strong, independent, and successful young women, while we create valuable lifelong friendships and lasting memories."
Lauralton Hall believes in the power of the female mind; we believe that all young women can grow and blossom into their best selves.
Mercy is a path we walk each day. This path leads us to commit to a lifetime of serving and caring for each other.
The values that inspired the Sisters of Mercy more than 180 years ago remain a living, breathing part of our community today.
Through a challenging and supportive environment, each girl is given the opportunity to discover her own strengths and talents and to become an independent creative thinker.
Understanding and respecting other cultures, the global economy, and how to interact in different settings are essential skills our students learn.
A broad spirituality underlies Lauralton's holistic approach to education. We welcome and include all who wish to grow in spirituality, wisdom and character.
Trócaire: A New Mercy Retreat Experience
Being a Mercy Catholic school is a privilege, a true gift. We are part of a living tradition rooted in the story of Catherine McAuley and animated by the Mercy charism, a call to respond to the needs of our world with compassion, courage, and practical action. Catherine did not simply speak about mercy. She embodied it by stepping into the suffering of others with unwavering faith and a fierce commitment to dignity and justice. That same spirit continues to shape who we are at Academy of Our Lady of Mercy, Lauralton Hall in Milford, Connecticut.
