Harness Your Potential to Lead and Influence

"One thing I love about St. Kate’s is their determination to encourage strength and leadership in women. I was only at the camp for one week and already I feel different and more confident in myself and my leadership abilities. Being surrounded by incredible young women for a whole week working together was a truly fantastic experience and one I won’t be forgetting." - Bridget, 12th grader from St. Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists
