St. Hubert Catholic High School for Girls

BEGIN YOUR STORY AT ST. HUBERT!

The best way to know St. Hubert is to experience it firsthand, and so we invite all interested eighth grade and prospective transfer students to participate in our Shadow Program. Beginning in November of each academic year, SH provides opportunities for girls to spend a day “shadowing” a current student. The prospective student will spend the day accompanying her SH ambassador through the daily schedule, attending classes, eating lunch, participating in leadership or service activities, and taking part in any other activities scheduled for that day. Shadowers have the opportunity to meet many students and ask them questions about life at SH Prospective students watch our faculty in action, observe their teaching methods, and gain a sense of our challenging curriculum. We encourage all prospective freshmen and transfer students to take ad-vantage of this invaluable opportunity.

How do I schedule
