Purpose That Guides Everything We Do
At The Texas Girls School, our mission and vision are not abstract ideas — they shape how students learn, how teachers teach, and how our community grows every day. Everything we do is guided by a clear belief: when girls are challenged academically, supported personally, and encouraged to lead, they thrive. Our mission, vision, and values reflect that belief and define the kind of tuition-free school we are building for girls in grades 6 through 12.
Our Mission
To challenge and nurture young women to thrive — academically, personally, and professionally — through rigorous, student-centered STEM education.
At The Texas Girls School, we combine small class sizes, project-based learning, and advanced STEM academics to prepare girls for success in high school, college, and future careers. Our mission is rooted in helping students build confidence, curiosity, and the skills needed to lead in a rapidly changing world.
Our Vision
Confident, compassionate leaders prepared to shape the future.
We envision graduates who are college- and career-ready, equipped with strong problem-solving skills, creativity, and purpose. Students leave The Texas Girls School with a clear sense of who they are, how they learn, and how their choices impact both their local community and the wider world.
Our Core Values
We’ll Chart a New TRAIL Together
Our Texas-first, tuition-free approach is grounded in five core values that guide how we teach, learn, and grow.
T
Texas
Identity
We connect learning to Texas’s rich history, science, and culture, helping students understand the world through a local lens. Courses and experiences rooted in Texas ecology, engineering, and innovation make learning relevant and meaningful.
R
Relationships
Strong relationships are the foundation of our school. In a supportive all-girls environment, students feel safe to take risks, collaborate, and lead—building trust, belonging, and confidence through small classes and meaningful connection.
A
Advancing Women in STEM
Through hands-on engineering, computer science, and project-based learning, students tackle real-world challenges and build the skills needed for future STEM pathways. Learning is designed to spark curiosity, persistence, and critical thinking.
I
Intentional Growth
We believe growth happens on purpose. Students set goals, reflect on progress, and develop self-awareness—learning that growth is about progress, not perfection, and that effort leads to confidence.
L
Love of
Learning
We foster a culture where curiosity is celebrated and learning is joyful. Through engaging instruction, creative expression, and a balanced school experience, students develop a lifelong love of learning and a strong sense of well-being.
