If you are looking for a school that is not yeshivish you may be limited in terms of who will accept your daughters. Your best bets are Tehilas Chaya Sara and Ateres Tzipora.

I would add to that Ateres Bais Yaakov.
I also think OP does not give enough information about what she means by "not yeshivish" "open-minded" etc....

Every lakewood school will ask if u have internet. They dont make u crazy about it since most people have for business but if they pickup that ur kid is mentioning it and using the internet they will probably approach u.

I'll second what others have said: there is no Lakewood school that won't ask about having internet access. My boys' school asks that your internet is filtered, which seems reasonable to me.
I don't have any daughters, but I've gotten to know a lot of the girl's schools... to add another name to your list, I've been really impressed with Bnos Bracha. Seems like a really healthy, creative, accepting atmosphere.

BTW, I actually attended Prospect elementary and high school. I don't think you'll find a school with that much diversity. That being said though, there are some really nice girls schools, albeit with distinct 'Lakewood flavor' to them.

Bnos brocha is different then ateres chaya sora....pretty much every mother dresses very tznius in bnos brocha. Definitely a frummer crowd then the other school. So I wouldnt put it on the same list as the other schools mentioned here.

I don't live in Lakewood and I don't have girls. But just from I read here and Yeshiva World sounds like you need Hillel in Deal or something like R Teitz school in Elizabeth

As mentioned on imamother before pple moving from Brooklyn to toms river and jackson should realize they are kind of moving to lakewood....u are using lkwd schools doctors stores etc....cant expect schools etc not to care about the typical lakewood standards such as asking about Internet. Theres also the getting into school issue. Most school are full and theres so many pple moving from brooklyn it will be impossible to accomodate every kid into schools.

Much of Hillel is not religious. And it's a Syrian school even if there are ashkenaz ppl there. Doesn't sound like what the op is looking for at all.
