自我的形成

呵护你神奇的思想、身体和心灵

如何应对考试焦虑? 五个小时的睡眠够吗? 什么是“执行功能”?’

在梅菲尔德,女孩们不会单打独斗. 我们突破性的“自我形成”计划, 简称为FOS, 旨在解决基本健康问题, 学生的健康和发展需求. The bold curriculum extends through all four high school years with age-appropriate topics addressed at each grade level. Classes meet about twice a month and are taught by our team of student support experts. At the root of the program lies one of Cornelia Connelly's powerful statements:

“Be yourself, only make the self all that God wants it to be.”

Our innovative program speaks to essential topics for teenage girls.

In a uniquely incisive approach to health and wellness education, Mayfield experts have developed year-long seminars at each grade level. Students meet twice a month with our school nurse, 辅导员, or education specialist to discuss teen-relevant topics, including how to navigate new environments and relationships.

At the root of the program lies one of the seven goals of Holy Child education—“to promote the personal growth and development of all who participate in the life of the school.”
