In 1843, Sarah Porter founded a school. Her purpose? To create access to transformational education.

Today, Miss Porter’s School augments that legacy with innovation to prepare young women to shape a changing world.

“We started off the day with a well-deserved sle

“We started off the day with a well-deserved sleep-in. But on an even better note… there were finally chocolate croissants at breakfast! After our breakfast of champions, we were sent on a mission to scope out at least two of the many museums within the walls of Avignon in order to analyze how information is presented to the public. Our group visited the Roman and Egyptian Museum - so many mummies! Throughout the historical building, there were artifacts dating back centuries; it was amazing to see how many were so well preserved. Next, we ventured off to the Gothic Mansion Museum. Comparing the differences between the two museums, especially since they were from entirely different periods, really helped us compare and contrast spaces and exhibits. After our historical walk, we headed back to the hotel for lunch: sandwiches and salads from a local café. After lunch, we took a lovely stroll to the Pont d’Avignon, and just like the song says, we danced on the bridge.

“Sur le Pont d’Avignon, on y danse, on y danse…””

Through the Performing Arts, students discover a place where they are at home with each other in taking on roles, creating choreography, and playing music. They develop confidence and skills that inform their studies and lives and, for some, become their calling. With exposure to professional actors, musicians, and dancers, students experience a vast cultural expanse of expressions and possibilities. Many Porter’s performances, from classics to student-created works, afford authentic opportunities for interdisciplinary creative work.
