The "For Every Girl" Campaign
St. Cecilia Academy’s “For Every Girl” campaign aims to fund a new 25,000-square-foot Athletic and Wellness Center. The campaign goal is $16M and the new center will more than triple the space currently dedicated to athletics and wellness education. It will support enhanced programs in sports, fitness, recreation, and wellness to nurture the physical development, mental well-being, and overall vitality of every student.
The center will complement SCA’s high academic standards and culture of excellence and provide a wonderful environment for girls to strive for their personal best. It will enable our athletic programs to flourish and allow students to practice the virtues unique to the arena of athletics and physical fitness while fostering community and belonging.
SCA has a remarkable 165-year story, and this project is the next great chapter. The new athletic center will transform our school, ensuring it continues to be a beacon of light and hope, forming young women who will go forth to transform the world in truth and love.
