Sabrina D'Angelo, Head of School
Welcome to St. Anne's School
As the founding Head of St. Anne’s School, I am honoured to lead a community that is boldly reimagining what it means to educate and empower young women. From the moment we opened our doors, our mission has been clear: to create a school where girls are not only learners, but leaders, where they are encouraged to speak up, take risks, and shape the world around them.
At St. Anne’s, we are building more than a school; we are building a legacy. Our students are the architects of our culture and traditions, and their voices are central to every decision we make. This is a place where girls are seen, heard, and celebrated for who they are and who they are becoming.
We are proud to be York Region’s only all-girls independent school, offering a progressive academic program that nurtures intellectual curiosity, emotional intelligence, and social responsibility. Our students benefit from a learning environment designed specifically for girls that fosters confidence, collaboration, and a deep sense of belonging.
What makes St. Anne’s truly unique is our close partnership (our Partnerhood!) with St. Andrew’s College, an all-boys school located just one kilometre away. This collaboration allows our students to enjoy the best of both worlds: the focus and empowerment of an all-girls education, combined with meaningful shared experiences that prepare them for life beyond school. Whether through joint arts initiatives, athletic programs, or leadership opportunities, our Partnerhood with St. Andrew’s enriches the SAS experience in powerful ways.
Our girls enter as cygnets (young swans) and graduate as pens (wiser swans), ready to take flight. Along the way, they are supported by a dedicated faculty, inspired by a thriving sisterhood, and challenged to dream big. The goal of our strategic plan, In Flight, is to cultivate a generation of young women who are authentic, kind, and ready to lead change.
I invite you to explore our website, visit our campus, and experience the energy and promise of St. Anne’s School. We are a community on the rise – and we would be thrilled to welcome you into it.
Sabrina D’Angelo
