ST. Catherine's Shadow VISITs

A Shadow Visit or Angel Tour is the best way to find out what life as an Angel is really like! Students are welcome for a visit on select days throughout the school year (October through April), as noted in the registration form below. Register online or contact the Admissions Office at (262) 833-5517 at least one week in advance. We look forward to seeing you!  

Prospective students, in grades 6th, 7th and 8th, are invited to spend the day as a St. Catherine’s Angel! Follow a current student through his/her class schedule, a grand tour of the school and a complimentary lunch from the Angels Cafe. Visits are are offered Wednesday through Friday only. Once scheduled, an email will be sent from the Admissions Office confirming your requested date and providing more detailed information.

We encourage 8th graders to shadow in the fall semester and also attend Open House on Thursday, October 19, 2023. Students in 6th & 7th grade should consider a shadow during the spring semester.

NOTE: Shadow days are for students only.

The main office is located on the northeast corner of 12th St. and Park Ave. (door #1). The buzzer, to the left of the door, will give you access to the school.

Please note that SCHS students and guests are not allowed to use cell phones during class. If a phone is brought on the day of the visit it must be checked in with the secretary at the main office.

Shadow Visit Lunch

Each guest will receive a ticket for lunch in the SCHS Cafeteria which has a variety of hot and grab-and-go items available each day. Students are also welcome to pack their lunch if they prefer and use the ticket for something cold to drink or a sweet treat. Please contact the Admissions team at (262) 812-0155 if a student has food allergies. We may require the student to bring a bagged lunch if appropriate accommodations cannot be made. 

Parent Tour

We are happy to provide a 45 minute parent tour beginning at 1:30 p.m. on the day of your child’s shadow day. Please use the main entrance (northeast corner of 12th and Park Ave.) and check in with the main office. The tour will end at the main entrance where shadow visitors will return at the end of the day. If interested, please check the appropriate place on the shadow day registration form, including the number of parents attending.

We Want Your Feedback

The Shadow Day doesn’t end once you leave St. Catherine’s at dismissal. We want to hear from you, both parents and students. A short survey will be sent via email to learn how the day went and answer any questions.

Please note: Failure to adhere to any of the above policies may result in rescheduling the shadow day, since the student will not be permitted to visit with improper dress or disregard to our cell phone policy.
