We are offering classes and camps for all ages, from PreK through adults, and participants do not need to be enrolled at or have graduated from Saint AgnesSchool to take part in our Summer Series offerings.

Supporting and extending our school’s apostolate, each of the classes and camps offered will honor the mission of Saint Agnes School by promoting Faith, Reason and Virtue as well as serving Christ and His Church in the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis.

Our Summer Series offerings are led by members of the faculty, staff, and community of Saint Agnes School. We hope you'll join us this summer!
