Santa Catalina Lower and Middle School

Our middle school students got a jump on the school year with orientation, which included fun and games in the updated Bedford Family Gymnasium and E.L. Wiegand Aquatics Center! We're excited to see these places back in action. Thank you to all of the donors who made these improvements possible for current and future Santa Catalina students. 💙💛

Eighth grader Maria Paloma stopped by today with her 4-H project steers that she shows at local county fairs—demonstrating one of the many ways of being a well-rounded student in and out of the classroom! 🐮💙

We are excited to introduce our new faculty and staff! Help us give them a warm welcome by saying “hi” if you see them on campus. 👋💙🐾

Summer is in full swing at C.U.B. Camp, our all-boys day camp that fosters Courage, Unity, and Brotherhood. Our boys visited Hayward Lumber, learned woodworking skills, and built their very own benches. We're excited to see our Cougars enjoy the benches in the new school year! 💙💛

Wishing everyone a fun, safe, and happy Fourth! ❤️🤍💙💛

This year’s Spring Concert, “Better When We’re Dancing,” had the audience ready to move and groove! From upbeat performances to joyful moments on stage, the show was all about feeling good, having fun, and celebrating the power of music and dance.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make this incredible production possible, and to all of our wonderful friends and family for joining us and cheering on our students! 🎶✨

Cracking the challenge! Our 5th grade students put their creativity, problem-solving, and engineering skills to the test during the Egg Drop Challenge. Whose egg could survive the fall?

Congratulations to all of our Middle School Awards winners! From academics and athletics to the arts, leadership, and character, we are so proud of your hard work, determination, compassion, and grace. Your dedication shines both inside and outside the classroom; keep setting the world on fire!

A special tradition and a meaningful moment 💙❤️💛🤍 At our Compass Installation, the 8th grade students officially passed the torch to the 7th grade class, welcoming them as the next Compass leaders. Through excellence, service, responsibility, and spirituality, these students help guide and support our community. We are so proud of our outgoing leaders and excited to see the 7th grade class step into this important role!
