After all, its educational opportunities for yoting women were almost unique in in America's pre-Civil War days. Even through the ravages of the war, the school grew steadily and continued to draw students from all parts of the nation. Under Mother M. Angela, first Directress of Studies, who guided the school until 1870, St. Maiy's developed • a curriculum acclaimed by both Catholic i and non-Catholic educators. 9 Four other dedicated Sisters, all highly capable educators and under­ standing counselors of women, main­ tained the gradual development of St. Mary's curriculum to keep pace wth educational advancements during the next quarter-century. Graduates of the school also did their share to advance the cause; in 1879 they formed the firsts Catholic women's alumnae association in America.
