Angelina Margaret Hoare (17 May 1843 – 10 January 1892) was a missionary from Kent, England, who devoted her life to the advancement of women's education in British India.^[1]

Her works

She founded the St. John's Diocesan Girls' Higher Secondary School, Calcutta, West Bengal, India.^[2] She started many other educational institutions in India. She used to work in a unique way by taking suggestions and interacting with various native clergymen and pandits to draw out an effective plan best fitted to provide an efficient education and training without in any way anglicising the girls or introducing expensive foreign habits, either in dress or in person. She wrote in one of the letters to her brother in England : "...my idea of the future of our Diocesan School is that it should be an institution not confined to any particular society or an elite group..."

She died aged 48 in 1892.^[3]

Success

On her death, the then Bishop of Calcutta, Bishop Johnson, praised her in the following words: {{quote|...be assured, all of you that her devoted life has not been lost, for the public of Calcutta. The work she has done can never be altogether lost sight of. Not to mention the seed she has sown in the hearts of her beloved children in the Diocesan School of Calcutta and other schools in the Sundarbans , which will bear fruit in the generations to come...}}
