Meet our Modern Languages department

St. Catherine’s has long been known for the quality of its modern language instruction. We encourage students to begin the study of a language in their freshman year. It is recommended, however, that high school freshmen who have difficulty or problems in reading postpone the study of a modern language for a year. Please know, however, that two (2) consecutive years of the same modern language is required for graduation.

Be advised: Many colleges and universities offer retroactive credits or they waive language requirements for students who have successfully completed high school modern language study at St. Catherine’s.
