Catalyst Maria High School Softball
Currently in its third year of operation, Catalyst-Maria Charter School serves students K-12 in the Chicago Lawn/Marquette Park neighborhood on the Southwest Side of Chicago.
Catalyst-Maria High School is forming its inaugural softball team, co-headed by 9th grade Math teacher and former Pacific Lutheran University softball standout Kaaren Hatlen, and 9th/12th grade Special Education teacher and former College of the Holy Cross outfielder Sarah Free. The costs of starting a program are immense--uniforms, equipment, umpire fees, and bus fees are among the numerous costs we will incur throughout the season. The girls in our high school are adamant about starting a team, and the co-coaches are passionate about enabling this to happen, but we need help!!
Our mission at Catalyst is that every child possesses inherent value and potential regardless of background educational level or life circumstances. We create agents of change in society by showing profound respect for students, and by joining with their families and communities to foster each scholar’s growth.
Help us give our scholars the opportunity to experience the opportunities that sports have given so many of us.
