Sue Baldwin was appointed Interim Head of School for the 2011-12 school year.

| | From Miss Jennie’s pioneering vision in 1890 of a school that prepared young women for the rigors of higher education, to today’s emphasis on academic excellence, character development, leadership skills and spiritual growth, St. Catherine’s stands out among independent schools. Our mission is to develop young women with a passion for inquiry, intellectual exuberance, an active concern for others and positive engagement in the world.
Our emphasis on excellence is wrapped within a community of teachers and students who care deeply for one another and support each girl’s individualism, as well as the lessons learned when she falls short of her goals. In addition to providing girls a rigorous educational foundation in core curriculum, we also equip them with skills needed to compete in the technologically advanced 21st century that is their future. Working together as a community, we share our mission of outreach to others through service learning that is dominated by practical application of knowledge mastered in our classrooms.
I hope the extensive information you find on our website will encourage you to visit and experience first-hand the specialized programs and gifted people who distinguish this school. A visit is the only way you can fully experience the traditions, the history and the energy that is St. Catherine’s. I look forward to meeting you on campus so I can welcome you in person and share with you everything I have come to embrace and cherish about the school in my 30 years as a teacher and administrator.
It is an energizing and exhilarating time to be a part of the St. Catherine’s family. We invite you to see for yourself how a St. Catherine’s education can empower your daughter.
Sue Baldwin
Interim Head of School
