Mission Statement

Georgetown Visitation, founded in 1799, is a college preparatory school dedicated to the education of young women from a variety of backgrounds. We are a faith-centered community which is focused on educational excellence and is rooted in the Roman Catholic faith and Salesian tradition. Our mission is to empower our students to meet the demands and challenges of a rapidly changing and morally complex world. Enriching co-curricular and Christian service programs complement the academic and spiritual life of the school and encourage our students to develop into intellectually mature and morally responsible women of faith, vision and purpose.
