Santa Catalina School

Welcome to Santa Catalina School!

At Santa Catalina Lower and Middle School, we are proud to be an independent Catholic school nestled in the beautiful city of Monterey. We warmly welcome boys and girls from PreKindergarten through Grade 8 into our vibrant community.

Our Mission

Here at Santa Catalina, we believe in a values-based education that nurtures not just the mind, but also the heart. Our focus is on:

• Character Development: We help our students grow into kind, responsible individuals.
• Academic Rigor: We challenge our students to reach their full potential.
• Supportive Community: We create a warm and welcoming environment where everyone feels at home.

PreKindergarten Program

In our PreKindergarten program, we maintain a 7:1 student-teacher ratio. This means your child will receive plenty of personalized attention, laying a strong foundation for their early learning journey.

Engaging Curriculum

Our curriculum is designed to be fun and engaging! It includes:

• Hands-on Experiences: Learning through play and exploration.
• Arts: Encouraging creativity and self-expression.
• Technology: Preparing students for the future.
• Physical Education: Promoting health and teamwork.

We believe that fostering a love of learning and encouraging self-discovery are key to a successful education.
