Student involvement and leadership
Students at the Academy have a wide range of interests and talents, and we have designed
clubs and organizations to help each girl explore and develop her passions.

Committed
to building
a better
world
By getting involved in clubs,
organizations, and formational
programming, you will develop the
knowledge, confidence, compassion,
and respect necessary to be a
leader in your community. With
more than 60 student-led clubs and
organizations, you can write an article
for the school newspaper, hone your
skills as a photographer, ski with
your classmates on the weekend,
or practice your diplomacy skills
through Model UN. Most of the clubs,
organizations, and honor societies
meet during the school day, which
means that you will have access to
these enrichment opportunities built
right into your schedule. You will be
challenged to find balance in your life
as you learn to make prudent choices
about extra-curricular activities.
Athletics: Cultivating self-discipline,
cooperation, and respect
Athletics are an integral part of the formation into a well-rounded
student at Saint Ursula Academy. Our athletes understand that
hard work teaches rules, skills, self-discipline, cooperation,
sportsmanship, respect and commitment to shared goals.
Competition is an essential ingredient of our athletic program, and
it will help you learn how to deal with both winning and losing. The
Bulldogs have captured a number of impressive titles affirming that
self-discipline, team spirit and intense practices pay off. Our athletic
teams look for students of all abilities to participate, whether you
have been playing a sport for years or want to try something new.
