Why Immaculate Heart?

Immaculate Heart is an independent, Catholic college preparatory school dedicated to the intellectual, spiritual, moral and social development of young women in grades six through twelve. In partnership with parents, we foster academic excellence in an environment that encourages students to develop a deep concern for things of the heart as well as the mind through leadership, service and a lifelong commitment to Christian values.

Over 110 years and more than 12,000 graduates after our founding, we continue to attract very talented and highly motivated students who represent the religious, ethnic and socio-economic diversity of the City of Los Angeles and its suburbs. We provide students with a strong foundation that prepares them for a successful transition into college and beyond.

We invite you to learn more about our middle school and high school programs, and look forward to meeting you and your families throughout the admissions process.

Immaculate Heart shaped me into the woman I am today, a woman who I believe, is one of great heart and right conscience. There are no words to describe how much that has helped me at New York University.
College Matriculation
Virtually 100% of Immaculate Heart's graduates go on to college immediately after graduation, many to some of the most prestigious institutions in the country. Each year, Immaculate Heart students are recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Program, and many students earn significant scholarships to colleges and universities.
