Ursuline Academy Community Newsletter | March 2026

Dear Ursuline Community,


This past month has been filled with energy, excitement, and so many moments that remind us what it means to be a Bear. Across academics, arts, athletics, and service, our students continue to inspire us with their dedication, talent, and commitment to living out our mission.


We are thrilled to celebrate our UA Dance Team, who claimed the State Championship title for the second year in a row at the end of February. Our UA Bearbotics Team has also been making headlines, debuting their 2026 robot, Cleobeara, and earning a spot at the World Championships after strong performances at both the Oklahoma and St. Louis Regionals. We couldn’t be more proud of these UA teams!


The Class of 2026 completed their Senior Capstone presentations, where each senior shared powerful reflections on their growth, experiences, and the ways they are prepared to carry Serviam with them into the future.


Our arts community also had a standout month, with Troupe Barlume’s spring production of All Shook Up delighting audiences and showcasing the incredible talent of our students. Beyond campus, our global immersion opportunities continue to expand horizons, as students recently traveled to France, embracing new cultures and strengthening our Ursuline connections around the world.


We are also proud of our students who represented Ursuline at the district Speech & Debate competition, the District Solo and Ensemble Festival, and East Central College Theater Competition. These students demonstrated confidence, poise, and a true passion for sharing their voices and talents.


Each of these moments is a testament to the vibrant, supportive, and inspiring community we share. Thank you for being such an important part of it. Take a look at more of this month’s highlights below!
