Angel Athlete Day
Spend October 30 inside a Catholic, Dominican education — arrive 7:05am, lunch on us.
Register NowThe Dominican Pillars
Four standards of life.
One formed character.
St. Catherine's is built on the Dominican values that have guided the Order for eight centuries. They are not themes we teach — they are the standards by which we live.

Woven through the day — morning announcements, student-led services, monthly liturgies, and blessings that begin every class.

A Day in the Life
What becoming an Angel looks like.
Academics
"The iPad, the seminar table, and the tradition of inquiry."
An iPad, a seminar, and a tradition of inquiry.
Every Angel completes curriculum on an Apple iPad — a commitment we've held since 2010, when we launched one of the nation's first 1:1 programs. Inside our $1.2 million renovated science wing sit the SC Johnson STEM Lab and the Perez Makerspace.
Outside our doors, partnerships with Marquette, UW–Madison, St. Norbert, and others translate AP credit into real college progress.
Faith & Service
"Campus Ministry is not a program — it is the atmosphere."
A faith that is practiced,
not merely professed.
Campus Ministry at St. Catherine's is not a program — it is the atmosphere. Weekly student-led prayer services. Monthly all-school Masses. Senior retreats at Wonderland Camp.
And every April, our Day With A Purpose sends freshmen through seniors into Racine for over two thousand hours of service in a single week.
Athletics
"Go Angels — a training ground for character."
Go Angels.
Eighteen programs, one community.
Competing in the Metro Classic Conference — and Southern Lakes for swim & dive — we field eighteen varsity sports across three seasons.
From Friday-night football to varsity tennis to the legendary McGuire-Letsch Golf Scramble, athletics here is a training ground for character.
