How to Apply

We couldn’t be happier with Audrey’s decision to spend 8 years at Forest Ridge.  From the sports and drama programs, and the exchange opportunities to the guiding principles of the Sacred Heart Goals and Criteria, Forest Ridge opened so many doors to Audrey and gave her a unique environment to figure out who she is, how she learns and how to move forward.

Why All Girls?

The Girls' School Advantage

All-girl learning environments create a culture of achievement. When girls feel known, understood and challenged, they have the power to be their very best selves.

Students in all-girl classrooms confidently voice their opinions, ask thought-provoking questions and embrace new learning experiences and opportunities. Simply put, at girls' schools, girls thrive - and Forest Ridge is proud to be a leader in all-girls education in Seattle and beyond.
