Admissions Newsletter | Mar. 2026

Dear Future Bears,


Spring is such an exciting time at Ursuline Academy, and we love seeing our campus filled with future students and their families!


As we continue to celebrate our Class of 2030, we’re also looking ahead and building connections with the next generation of Bears. Remember, the best way to choose a high school is to get involved and spend time on campus, and there are so many opportunities to do just that!


🐻 Bear for a Day and 7th Grade Spring Shadow Days are both sold out! If you're registered for either and can no longer attend, please email Heidi Burch at hburch@ursulinestl.org so that students on the waitlist can have the opportunity to join.


☀️ UA Summer Camps registrations are filling up fast! Be sure to sign up to secure your spot, and join us for our FREE Summer Camp Kickoff on Wednesday, May 20th!



We can’t wait to welcome you to campus this spring and help you discover all the ways your path can begin here.


As always, please feel free to reach out to the Admissions team with any questions or to learn more about how at Ursuline Academy, all paths lead to YOU!

Ursuline Academy Summer Camp Kickoff

Wednesday, May 20th | 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM

Hosted by the UA Admissions Team


Campers entering 5th–8th grade as of Fall 2026 are invited to our FREE Summer Camp Kick-Off Event. Campers and parents may stop by anytime during the event.


This event is designed to help campers feel excited, prepared, and comfortable on campus before their summer camp experience. Attendees will enjoy light food and drinks, participate in a campus scavenger hunt while creating a summer swag bag with all their “bear necessities,” and meet other campers who may be attending the same camps.


Parents will also have the opportunity to explore campus, ask questions, and ensure their daughter feels confident and ready for her week(s) at UA. Don’t miss out on the fun!
