Sister Carlotta Financial Aid Endowment

Sister Carlotta O’Donnell, Santa Catalina’s second head of school, was committed to ensuring all students reach their full potential by taking advantage of everything that Santa Catalina has to offer. Today, providing families with the financial support they need remains among the school’s highest priorities.

In honor of Sister Carlotta and the school’s longstanding dedication to a quality experience for all, an anonymous donor has established the Sister Carlotta Financial Aid Endowment.

Why financial aid?

Santa Catalina School changed the tuition assistance program to a financial aid program in order to more fully support families with costs beyond tuition. Over time, financial aid will allow the school to cover school-associated expenses such as computers, books, class trips, and class rings. The transition to this financial aid model, grounded in our mission and core values, will help ensure Santa Catalina remains relevant by addressing families’ needs and increasing access to the opportunities that create meaning for students.
