 Ellen Cowan '90 Sings at Cate
Cate alumna Ellen Cowan '90 returns to the Mesa to help the School celebrate Mr. Cate's birthday and the upcoming Centennial with a very special vocal performance dedicated to the music of composer Joseph-Maurice Ravel (March 7, 1875 - December 28, 1937). After graduating Cate, Ellen went on to further musical training at Yale University, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and the Vienna National Music University (Musikhochschule). Having placed with distinction in many national and international competitions, Ellen sings under the professional name "Elena McEntire." Read more about Ellen's performance.

 Cate Fund
Support for the Cate Fund in 2009-10 has been inspiring. As of December 1, total cash and pledges are up 31% over last year, and giving from Parents, Trustees, Grandparents and Foundations are all up. Our only soft spot is support from alumni -- participation is down 3% over last year. In this season of giving, we invite all alumni to reach out and do what they can to support the annual Cate Fund and honor Cate's upcoming Centennial. Support Cate now! |
