The Hockaday School:
The Hockaday School in Dallas, TX, established in 1913 by Miss Ela Hockaday and a group of concerned parents, provides an outstanding college preparatory education for girls in grades 8 through 12 (boarding); and Pre-K through 12 (day). The boarding experience at The Hockaday School is unique and unlike any other you will find. Originally founded as a boarding school, Hockaday has kept its boarding community small and intimate within a school population that has grown to over 1,000 students. Our staff does not serve double duty as faculty members but instead are devoted 100% to their residence jobs. As a community of 73 boarders, we offer an incredible amount of diversity, representing numerous states and an average of 12 countries each year. On the other hand, our commitment to remain under 75 boarders allows us always to feel like a family and a close-knit community.
Location and Facilities:
Academic Research Center (ARC)Completed in 2002, the Academic Research Center, known as the ARC, is a state-of-the-art facility that houses Hockaday’s libraries, computer labs, science exploration lab, audiovisual editing bays, publications rooms, and technology hub. The ARC is the heart of campus – geographically and intellectually. With its forward-looking design and function, the ARC provides students with a place where they can study, research, and collaborate using a variety of media.
No two girls are alike, but girls who board at Hockaday share a common bond. They are free to be themselves and explore their unique potential. Through their Hockaday boarding experience, girls develop longtime friendships, gain self-confidence, acquire an excellent education, and become women who make their parents proud.
