The
symbols used in the Seal of St. Rita High School
depict events in the lives of two great Saints:
Augustine, the Founder of the Augustinian Order, and
Rita, the holy patroness of our school.
The center of the seal incorporates events in the
life of St. Augustine. The book, representing the
writings of St. Augustine, is a symbol of his great
learning. The heart burning and pierced with an
arrow symbolized St. Augustine's great and burning
love for God and His creatures. The inscription
around the seal is the official title of our school,
and is bordered by roses depicting the life of St.
Rita, our patroness. The seal is red and navy blue
because those are our school colors.
