During its forty-year history, the school offered a curriculum of studies that challenged young women to meet their educational goals and to reach their fullest potential.

Changing community and times necessitated merging two schools to enable the Archdiocese to preserve the mission it began in 1923.

It is one block from both Saint Sophia Cathedral and St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church and a short walk from Loyola High School.

The academy is staffed by an Artist in Residence program, giving the students opportunities to learn from professional touring musicians and engineers.

The school now offers classes in Astrobiology and other space related fields as well as visits to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, CA.
