In 1851, six bold Dominican Sisters answered a call that would shape generations. Traveling by flatboat down the Mississippi River, they arrived in Memphis with little more than faith, courage, and a vision: to empower young women through Catholic education.

Through war, yellow fever, and fire the school not only endured but flourished — a testament to the resilience of its founders and the strength of its mission.

That courage sparked a legacy that has endured for 175 years. Rooted in faith, committed to truth, and driven by a bold spirit, St. Agnes Academy continues to empower generations of women to lead, serve, and transform the world.

175 Years Bold.
