In the heart of Newark, encircled by one of our most challenged cities, lies a school that has changed the lives of countless women over the past 138 years.

It's a place where an ethnically diverse mix of students has achieved post-secondary education rates of 95%, where school attendance is routinely in the 98% range, where deserving students from Greater Newark can experience the joy of a future filled with possibility.

It's a place of miraculous achievements.
And it's called Saint Vincent Academy.


"We really see the value that the school is providing in educating young women and we will continue to support SVA as it enters the new millennium. SVA is a great asset to the community. They’re developing the future leaders of Newark."

Maria Pinho, Saint Vincent Advisory Board member
