Report Card Assembly recognizes academic achievement and courtesy toward others.
There is truth in everything we do.
VERITAS. It’s the Santa Catalina motto and our modus operandi.
We seek truth and self-knowledge at every turn.
Who you are today holds the key to unlocking who you will be tomorrow. So speak your mind. Own your ideas. Follow your dreams, and don’t ever stop going after what you want. Because this is about you: the person you are now and the even more amazing person you’re about to become.

What is it about Catalina that encourages you to try new things?
Catalina is definitely a great place to pursue what you love because it provides students with many opportunities. What allows me to participate in different activities is the support from my friends and teachers. They encourage me to try new things and discover what I truly like to do, no matter if it’s just my interest or if it’s something that can help me to further develop my career path in the future.
Marina
Hometown: Biel-Benken, Switzerland
Activities: Last year, I took part in tennis and robotics. This year, I chose to have more time for my artwork and have enjoyed yoga and strength training.
Favorite Place on Campus: My favorite place on campus is the front lawn when it is dry and the sun is out. You can lay on the warm grass, look up and see the clouds moving by. It is beautiful.
How would you describe Santa Catalina's art program?
I like the art department because it offers classes that allow students to explore varied art forms. The teachers are helpful and supportive throughout our art projects by guiding us along the way. I also very much appreciate that the art facilities are open during off hours so we can utilize the space and the art supplies.
