Greetings!
It has been a busy and exciting summer for our Marian girls. They enjoyed some cool camps during the hot summer months giving them a chance to explore college life, enhance study skills, volunteer and test their ingenuity. Thanks so much for your support in providing these unique opportunities to our students.

Summer Camp
|
| - MMS girls spent two weeks at the Washington University YMCA Camp where they learned about specific majors and campus life.
- Students excelled at Ranken Adventure Academy sampling technical careers such as carpentry, web design, glass beads and jewelry making, environmental jobs, auto-body work and metal welding. Thanks to our Marian Magic donors who made this possible! - At SASE "Show me" Science and Art Summer Experience, Marian girls learned about ecosystems and outdoor habitats. - "Marian Plunge" participants volunteered their time at St. Vincent de Paul Society thrift store, St. Elizabeth's Adult Day Care, Our Lady's Inn, and South Side Day Nursery.
