| In keeping with our Mission to foster the development of the mind, body and spirit of our girls, St. Catherine’s is pleased to announce the addition of an After-School Enrichment Program for St. Catherine's girls in kindergarten through grade 12. These after-school classes have been designed to give students the opportunity to explore activities of particular interest. Whether just for fun or to develop knowledge and skills, there are many great extracurricular programs available for our girls. Lower school girls will be taken to their classrooms for the afternoon. Parents will need to pick them up at their enrichment classroom.
Registration for spring enrichment classes is now available. Classes will run from March 19–May 3. Deadline for registration is March 16. Print registration form (below) and return it with your check to Chris Carlisle, Director of Auxiliary Program. Make checks payable to St. Catherine's School.
