AS a parent and an educator, I want my own children to be well know by their teachers, respected as individuals, and challenged to think in myriad ways. Visitation provides all those characteristics in spades.

I have absolutely loved my experience thus far at Visitation! The all- girls aspect is the most unique and special part about Visitation. Here, everyone feels included, loved, and cared for. The community is incredible! The classes are challenging and I am learning so much! The faculty cares so much about the students and just want to help them succeed!!
