The Mary Louis Academy

Guided by knowledge. Grounded in faith.

The Mary Louis Academy is a premier Catholic college preparatory school for young women in Jamaica Estates, NY. Recognized as the top-ranked all-girls Catholic school in NYC’s outer boroughs, TMLA has educated women of compassion, courage, and excellence since 1936. Rooted in the mission of the Sisters of St. Joseph, we empower students to grow academically, spiritually, and socially.

In 2025, TMLA expands its legacy with a new Middle School for grades 6–8, creating a unified 6–12 experience.
