Independent day and boarding school for college-bound girls
There are girls’ schools… Then
there’s SEM, far different from the expect-
ed feel and fare of other girls’ schools. SEM
girls are multi-dimensional! We have cre-
ated an independent culture of achieve-
ment, scholarship, leadership, and ser-
vice that challenges girls to engage and
explore a range of opportunities from
theater to sports, to public speaking and
computer programming.
We do not require uniforms and are
not bound by Regent’s strictures. At SEM,
girls are excited to be part of a commu-
nity where trust is intrinsic and indepen-
dent thinking is valued.
Technology is fully inte-
grated into the curriculum
with our 1:1 laptop program,
STEAM (science, technology,
engineering, art & design,
mathematics) program, two
NAO robots, a digital printer,
and virtual reality (VR) lab.
Check out our VR video at
buffaloseminary.org/VR.
Our humanities class-
rooms feature Harkness
tables to foster intelligent debate and
student-centered learning. Seated in the
round, everyone is seen and heard. Our
unique Capstone program encourages
deep subject learning over 4 years cou-
pled with community service.
SEM offers 13 varsity sports and clubs
from Model UN to chess, drama, dance,
ping-pong, and glee.
Entrance & Scholarship Exam dates
are available by appointment. Call to
schedule a visitor day.
Accredited by the New York State
Association of Independent Schools
(NYSAIS), we are also a member of the
National Association of Independent
Schools (NAIS), the National Coalition
of Girls’ Schools (NCGS), the Online
School for Girls (OSG), The Association of
Boarding Schools (TABS).
