St. Catherine's School

"St. Catherine’s Lower School has been the absolute best experience for our family. The faculty knows my daughter and her schoolmates individually — it feels that all aspects of her education cater to the whole person. My daughter feels like a vital participant in her educational process. The academic curriculum is superior, and the value system is inherent in everything. Additionally, there are many opportunities for my daughter to explore. It’s a wonderful school."

"St. Catherine’s School offers girls ages 3-18 an outstanding well-rounded education in a nurturing and family-friendly environment. St. Catherine’s offers a vast array of classes from Economics to Classical Literature to Digital Photography and Yoga in small classroom settings. This allows children to receive personalized attention while learning. I highly recommend this school."

"My girls have loved their time at St. Catherine’s. They enjoy their classes, teachers, friends, community and sports. As a parent, I appreciate their rigorous courses and their attentive teachers & coaches. More importantly to my family though is the support of and focus on the “whole girl.” St. Catherine’s works along side our family to help raise happy, healthy girls who will become active and productive global citizens."

"Enrolling our daughter at St. Catherine's is one of the best decisions we have made for her. She is incredibly happy and wants to go to school every day. The teachers and staff at this school are amazing, supportive and nurturing. I would not want her to be anywhere else, and I am confident she is getting the best education at St. Catherine's. The fact that this is an all-girls' environment has been such a positive, and I have watched her leadership skills and self-esteem flourish at this school. We have been here two years and have no complaints. I highly recommend this school to any parent who wants their daughter to receive a top-notch education in a nurturing environment filled with teachers and staff who truly care about your child's well-being and all facets of her development -- academically, spiritually, socially, physically and emotionally."

"Our daughter has been a Lower School student at St. Catherine's for 3 years, and we could not be happier. The school's focus on educating girls, the high caliber of the teachers and staff, and the warm, welcoming community have all made our experience at St. Catherine's a wonderful one. When we moved to Richmond 3 years ago, we looked at many different options - both public and private - and we're thrilled with our choice. Our friends with older daughters at St. Catherine's say great things about the Middle and Upper School experiences as well, so we look forward to many more years at the school."
