'Chatham Hall' is an all-girls college-preparatory boarding school located in Chatham, Virginia, United States. With graduating classes of less than thirty students each year, the School and alumnae community is exceedingly closeknit. Founded as Chatham Episcopal Institute in 1894, Chatham Hall remains steeped in traditions such as the Honor Code, lantern ceremonies, and senior privileges, while offering rigorous academics (15 AP courses) and a caring environment.
World leaders visit Chatham Hall each year as part of the Leaders-in-Residence program, including Nobel Peace Prize winner Shirin Ebadi, former U.N. Human Rights Commissioner and former Irish President Mary Robinson, primatologist Jane Goodall, and Nancy Brinker, founder of Race for the Cure. This year(2006-2007) the School will host former Pakistani prime minister Benazir Bhutto and PEN/Faulkner Award-winner Tobias Wolff.
