In her own
words…
“Memorial
High School and SBISD have supported me through come creative ideas. I was
given the opportunity to launch a summer school photography program in 2007
with National Geographic. I have been around the world with this “adventurous
idea.” This summer (2014), I will travel with 16 students to Iceland. What
wonderful memories Memorial High School has provided me.”
In the words
of others…
“Cathy
does not let dust settle under her feet or those of her students. She is
focused, passionate and extremely caring of each of her student’s talent. She
takes the brightest students further and extends the basics for the newcomers.”
–Bill Lakin, Memorial High Principal

good fortune to know and collaborate with at Memorial.” –Cathleen May, Memorial High Art
