Advisors
The advising system is a special part of all students' lives at Santa Catalina. A faculty advisor is assigned to each student, providing a link between the school and the family. With her advisor, the student reviews her academic progress, talks over plans and problems, keeps track of extracurricular obligations, and discusses daily life. Resident faculty provide an additional source of guidance and support. They welcome students into their homes to talk, watch movies, and catch up on the day's activities. In addition to teaching and advising students, faculty participate as coaches of teams; as advisors to organizations, clubs, and campus publications; and as chaperones for weekend and evening activities both on and off campus. Warmth and mutual respect between Santa Catalina students and faculty are the basis of the community spirit so evident in daily life on campus.

The Office of Student Affairs also provides students with a range of opportunities for support. Whether a girl is developing organizational skills and leadership or is growing in self-assurance and independence, the importance of adult-student relationships in that process cannot be underestimated. Positive interaction between students and adults is most often far more influential than one realizes at the moment, and clear, thoughtful advice encourages girls to think more responsibly for themselves.

Computers
Students have access to computers and printers in the classrooms, library, and language labs.

For students bringing computers to school, laptops are recommended due to desk space. Students must also bring a security cable. Both PC and Mac computers are acceptable.

Dormitories offer wireless Ethernet networks. Students can connect directly to the Internet using the school's T1 line, and do not need their own account.

To access the wireless network, the computer must be equipped with a wireless Ethernet adapter (not a router) that meets the 802.11g WiFi standard (802.11b is acceptable). For Mac, the standard adapter is an AirPort card.

Internet access is managed by time (study period, lights out, etc.) and web content is filtered.

For more information, contact , Director of Information Technology at 831.655.9348.  The office is located on the ground floor of the Science Building.
