Celebrating Excellence: 2025 Honors Assembly Highlights

On Friday, May 2, the St. Catherine of Siena Academy community gathered for one of the most meaningful traditions of the year—our annual Honors Assembly. Held in the gymnasium at 1:30 PM, this special event brought together the entire student body to recognize the academic excellence, leadership, and service of our students. As a community rooted in sisterhood, this assembly wasn’t just about awards—it was about uplifting one another and celebrating the many ways our students shine.

A Tradition of Achievement

The Honors Assembly is an opportunity to publicly affirm the gifts God has placed in each of our students. Awards presented during the ceremony spanned a range of disciplines and recognitions, including:

• Leadership and Service Awards
• Departmental Honors in English, Fine & Performing Arts, Language, Mathematics, PE/Health, Science, Social Studies, Theology, and Interdisciplinary Studies
• Scholar Athlete Awards
• Academic Excellence Awards
• Valedictorian and Salutatorian Recognition
• Cum Laude Society Inductions

Each award reflects not only hard work and achievement, but also the core values we live by at SCA: faith, wisdom, and sisterhood.
