Who We Are
The Mary Louis Academy is a Catholic, college-preparatory high school for young women in grades 9–12, recently expanded to include a middle school program for girls in grades 6–8, strengthening its commitment to forming young women from an earlier age.
Rooted in the charism of unity, reconciliation, and inclusive love that embraces all of creation, The Mary Louis Academy fosters an atmosphere of academic excellence and mutual respect. We empower young women to recognize and value their unique gifts — spiritual, intellectual, and social — and to use those gifts as leaders in building a more just society.
We are a community that celebrates cultural diversity and continues the Catholic tradition of faith and service.

Our Home On The Hill
Nestled on five acres of rolling hills in the heart of Jamaica Estates, Queens, The Mary Louis Academy’s campus offers an inspiring environment where students thrive academically, spiritually, and personally.
Set on a five-acre hilltop campus in Jamaica Estates, Queens, TMLA offers a distinctive setting where historic character meets modern spaces designed for learning, creativity, wellness, and community.
TMLA students benefit from state-of-the-art science labs, a health science center, an art cottage, a music conservatory with recording studio, a gymnasium and wellness spaces, two chapels and campus ministry areas, and a library modeled after the Yale Law School library.
The TMLA experience also extends beyond our hilltop home with access to St. Joseph Villa in Hampton Bays, a sacred waterfront retreat where students deepen their faith, build community, and find space for reflection.
