“Even before walking through the doors, I smile because Saint Catherine is a place of joy. I look forward to seeing everyone always smiling right back at me, and I feel honored and humbled to be a part of an extraordinary, very dedicated community. I am very proud to tell people I am a volunteer.”
Chris Woods, Volunteer & Supporter
“Prior to St. Catherine, Anna attended a public school and was allowed to get by with minimum effort. She needs to be pushed to learn the right way to read, speak, and sing. So it probably took a couple of months for Anna to adjust to the pace and embrace Saint Catherine Academy and the curriculum. The physical layout is very accommodating for Anna and her classmates, which allows for productive interaction between students and teachers and their assistants.”
“What has impressed us the most is that Anna is starting to read and comprehend much better than she ever has. Her teacher’s dedication to her and the other students is phenomenal! We know it is sometimes difficult for her, but we feel that St. Catherine provides Anna with the right level of teaching, direction, and encouragement to succeed.”
“Anna is excited to return this year! In short—we love Saint Catherine Academy!”
Dave and Jill, parents of Anna
“We’ve seen such a big change in Nyah since she started at Saint Catherine Academy. She is a lot more vocal, and a little more patient. She’s also more sociable and interacts more with her peers. We don’t know what type of person she would be becoming if it wasn’t for Saint Catherine’s. If I had to sum up the experience for us in one word, it would be Blessing.”

“My son Ronald transitioned to Saint Catherine after high school two years ago and it has been the best decision I could have made for him. He’s doing so much better since being there. I have noticed the growth within him—learning life skills and becoming more independent. He has stopped so many little habits he had and has gained so much self esteem. All the staff is very caring and have a lot of patience. Everything at the Academy is taught with consistency and being a part of all the activities has helped Ronald become a better version of himself.”

“As parents, we often look back and think ‘Maybe we should have…’. When we look at Saint Catherine Academy and Philip’s many years here, there is no ‘maybe’. We know with certainty that we did make the best possible choice for our son.”
