Summer at Santa Catalina, our all-girls summer camp, has begun! 🩷 We're excited to see so many alumnae and students working as counselors this year!

Students in the inaugural Design, Architecture & Engineering class took on a project this spring to identify the top characteristics and some of the challenges of St. Louis Bertrand Study Hall. They looked at aspects such as acoustics, direct sunlight, and how to improve those pesky desk assemblies. 😍 Opened in 1960, the building has certainly stood the test of time. Students praise its openness, views, and the community life it fosters. What would you keep and what would you change about Study Hall? Let us know in the comments! 👇

📸 Evening of the Arts was an incredible end-of-year showcase of our students' talents across music, theatre, dance, and visual arts! Check out photos here: https://loom.ly/tiOjyio

🎭 And in case you missed it, get excited for the 2026-27 theatre season, featuring Godspell, The Outsiders, and Frozen!

Graduation is a time to celebrate, but also a time to reflect. Before tossing their roses, seniors took time to write letters to the people who impacted their journey at Catalina. ✍️ Who would get your letter?

Commencement photos are in! 📸🌹 Check out our photo gallery to experience all of the joy, excitement, pride, and celebrations on the Class of 2026's big day. https://loom.ly/oaNjbYQ

Spirit Day might just the most amazing day of the year! From kickball and cake auction to sports awards and lots of school spirit. It truly takes the cake!
