Our Legacy is
Our Beginning

Inspired by: Mary E. H. McMichan

Mary Hallahan McMichan recognized the importance of creating opportunities for young women to excel and make a meaningful difference in the world. Her vision and generosity have influenced generations of diverse, working-class students to grow into confident leaders. Inspired by this legacy, Center City Girls Academy is committed to creating an extraordinary learning environment—one that encourages bold ideas, critical thinking, problem-solving, and community building. Through a rigorous, values-based education, CCGA empowers young women to thrive academically, develop confidence and character, and succeed as leaders in their communities and beyond.
