Congratulations to the Marian Class of 2026!

On Monday evening, we had the privilege of celebrating an incredible group of young women as they crossed the stage and officially became Marian alumnae. It was a night filled with joy, reflection, and pride as we honored all they have accomplished during their time at Marian.

Through hard work, perseverance, and the unwavering support of their Marian sisters, these graduates have grown into confident leaders ready to embrace the opportunities ahead. We know they will continue to make a lasting impact wherever their journeys lead.

Thank you to our families, faculty, staff, supporters, and community members who have walked alongside these students every step of the way.

Once a Marian Girl, Always a Marian Girl. 💙

For our final spotlight from last week's dinner, we are incredibly proud to present The Marian Girl Award!

This prestigious honor is given to one Marian Girl who truly exemplifies all of our core Marian values—leadership, cooperation, respect, service, kindness, effort, perseverance, enthusiasm, and responsibility. It represents the ultimate reflection of our school's identity and mission.

Join us in sending a massive congratulations to this year's sole recipient, Jannely, who embodies what it means to be a Marian Girl every single day! ✨💙

We are so proud to highlight the student ambassadors who received The Collier Family Scholarship at last week's ceremony!

This scholarship honors brothers Elie and Raymond Collier, who overcame racial and financial barriers to build a successful St. Louis business and advocate for education and community empowerment. Created to honor their legacy of service, this award is given to recipients who served with distinction as Marian Student Ambassadors. Thank you to the Collier Family for their belief in our mission, and to our five exceptional recipients for representing our school community so beautifully! 🌟

"Pour into those that pour into you." ✨

This is a phrase that guides us as we celebrate the recipients of The “She Is...” Scholarship from last week's awards dinner! This scholarship was originally created by a Marian alumna who received immense support throughout her own educational journey and wanted to give back to the next generation. The name reinforces our shared belief in each student’s potential and our desire for each student to recognize her own power.

Congratulations to our three wonderful recipients who continue to inspire us all! 💙

Academic excellence was on full display at last week's dinner, and today we honor the recipients of The Smiley Scholarship. This award honors Dr. William L. Smiley and Mrs. Adella Smiley, who were strong advocates for women, children, and education. It is presented to the top 8th-grade Marian Girls with the highest cumulative GPAs since their time here at Marian. A huge congratulations to our five recipients who achieved incredible cumulative GPAs ranging from 3.30 to 3.67!

Your hard work and dedication to your education truly shine. 📖🏆

Next up in our celebration series from last week's dinner, we are shining a light on our Flaherty Foundation Award recipients! The Flaherty Family Foundation empowers high-potential scholars in faith-based college preparatory high schools with scholarships, coaching, and mentoring to reach their God-given potential. Each of our five Marian recipients was nominated and awarded by their future high school based on their commitment to academic success. We are so proud of these scholars as they head off to Notre Dame High School - St. Louis, Rosati-Kain Academy, Nerinx Hall, and Bishop DuBourg High School! 📚✨

We were proud to celebrate each of our students last week at our 8th-grade award dinner! We'll continue to share our amazing award-winning recipients in separate posts, starting today off with the Nerinx Hall Diversity Award. This honor recognizes students who enrich our community through strong academics, leadership, and a commitment to service. In embracing the values of faith, community, justice, and respect, these select members of our Class of 2030 exemplify the spirit of empowered women who fearlessly pursue their dreams. Join us in celebrating our three incredible recipients! 🎓🌟

From the first day of this school year to today, their final day as Marian students, this group of 8th graders has grown in remarkable ways.

We are so proud of each of you for the dedication, resilience, leadership, and confidence you’ve continued to build during your time at Marian. You have honed your skills, embraced who you are becoming, and blossomed into thoughtful young leaders ready for what comes next.

Thank you for the joy, strength, and spirit you brought to our Marian community. It has been a blessing to walk alongside you throughout this journey, and we cannot wait to see all of the ways you will continue to grow and make an impact in the world as Marian alumnae.

Once a Marian Girl, always a Marian Girl! 💙✨
