Grier School is the only all-girls', all-boarding school in the United States. All of our 210 students live in supervised dormitories seven days a week, with three meals daily. The school serves as the student's guardian and we issue I-20 forms for the F-1 student visa. We have a strong ESL program and a Summer ESL/TOEFL Program. Grier has grades 7 through 12 and we accept new students into every grade. Our curriculum is university-preparatory. We offer many honors and AP classes as well as TOEFL and SAT preparation. Grier has a beautiful and safe location in the mountains of Central Pennsylvania, near Penn State University, the sixth-largest university in the U.S. We are easily accessible to major airports in Washington, D.C.. The majority of students are American girls but we also enroll international students from seventeen different countries. In addition to 14 AP courses Grier offers Business (Macro and Micro Economics) and Art minors. The Arts program consists of Fine Arts, Graphic Arts, Dance, Music, Photography, and Theater. Grier has just completed a $20 million building program featuring new Academic, Art and Music, Performing Arts, Science, and Equestrian Centers together with a new Library and many new dormitory facilities. We have a strong university-placement program with two full-time counselors. We understand the international market.
