Alumnae

Reunions

Welcome Home!

Alumnae are invited to participate in St. Catherine’s Reunions every five years, marking milestones at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 years and beyond. This cherished tradition brings hundreds of St. Catherine’s alumnae back to campus each year for a grand celebration with beloved friends. This vibrant, joyful occasion is brimming with opportunities to reconnect with long-lost friends, interact with dedicated faculty and current students and savor the beauty of the St. Catherine’s campus. Highlights include a warm welcome reception on the Green, a Saturday morning chapel service, the presentation of alumnae awards and lively class parties.

See you in April!

In 2026, we will celebrate the classes ending in 1 & 6. 
After last year’s tremendous success, we’re excited to announce that your Reunion will again be held alongside St. Christopher’s Reunion Weekend. While each school will host its own alumnae/i-focused events on campus, the celebrations will share the same dates—making it a special weekend for both communities.

In the meantime, if you would like to update your contact information, volunteer, nominate a classmate for recognition or request a class list, please use the links, or contact Laura Spratley Birdsey ’96, Assistant Director of Development and Director of Alumnae Relations or Laurie Hooker McCarthy ’87, Assistant Director of Alumnae Relations, by email or phone, 804-281-7141.
