Middle School Highlights
List of 3 items.

Digital Citizenship
Students communicate in different ways, many of which are changing so quickly that it is hard for parents to keep up. Our expert teachers empower students to navigate the digital world with classes that emphasize safety, responsibility and positivity. We also hold joint events for parents and students to learn about digital responsibility together. -
Independence and Responsibility
Every girl showcases her increasing confidence, unique strengths and academic goals through opportunities for leadership. This includes participation in student-led clubs, service activities and in Advisory. Girl-centered personal growth classes address nutrition, body image, self defense, and drug and alcohol awareness. -
Relationships and Inclusion
A young person’s relationships with her friends are incredibly important for her sense of happiness, connection and overall well-being. This is particularly true during the middle school years. Our Advisory and Strong Circles programs let students explore themes of honor, friendship, inclusion and service in a safe, welcoming group of peers.
Sharon Arne | Head of Middle School
I have worked at several independent schools and consulted for many more. Never have I seen such careful thought and attention given to the effect all aspects of programming might have on students. At St. Catherine’s, everything is analyzed with the students’ needs at the center of the decision-making process.
