Visitation Academy
The school is hosting an exhibition featuring the work of Tennessee artist Anne Goetze called Pray to Love. The mixed media pieces focus on the Visitation Monastery in Annecy, France, as well as the lives of the Visitation Sisters who call it home. Selections from the Visitation Monastery and Academy Archives also will be displayed. The exhibit will be available to view from March 26 to 31 on the academy's main campus. "We are excited to welcome this talented artist and share her beautiful and powerful imagery of life as a Sister of the Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary with the St. Louis community," says Amelia Blanton Hibner, dean of mission integration. "The historical and spiritual significance of these works cannot be put into words."

The high school’s boy’s and girl’s racquetball teams were named Overall Team National Champions at the USA Racquetball High School Championships for the second consecutive year. The boy’s team placed second, and the girl’s team placed first, giving them their first title in the school’s history. “Despite being in a new environment, they played with high intensity and poise,” Coach Dan Whitley says. “They supported one another and played as a team, exemplifying the players they have been all season. We are so proud of the way they represented Kirkwood High School and our community on a national stage.”

At the 2022-23 World Wide Technology STEM Student Forum, the school’s team won a $1,000 award to support STEM initiatives. The forum is designed to encourage high school juniors and seniors to pursue careers in STEM fields. This year, teams were asked to consider how schools could use technology and education to create a more sustainable future. The Whitfield team chose to explore ways to improve the school’s Conant Café by interviewing administrators, parent volunteers and students. They opted to create a web-based mobile ordering app.
