A cherished Padua tradition that strengthens the bonds of sisterhood.

The Big Sister, Little Sister Tradition

One of the most cherished traditions at Padua Academy, the Big Sister/Little Sister Program celebrates the heart of our sisterhood. From the moment freshmen meet their Big Sisters during Orientation, they are welcomed into a community built on friendship, encouragement, and support.

Throughout the year, Big and Little Sisters strengthen their bond through traditions like Sisters on the Steps, locker decorating, gift exchanges, and Trivia & Treats. These shared experiences help new students feel connected, build lasting friendships across grade levels, and create memories that extend far beyond freshman year. At Padua, sisterhood isn't just a tradition, it's a lifelong connection.
