Background
Convent of the Sacred Heart High School was established in 1887 by the Society of the Sacred Heart, and is an independent, Catholic, college preparatory high school for girls. One of the oldest private schools in California, CSH offers a challenging curriculum that provides a strong foundation to competitive college entrance. CSH gives students a social awareness that impels them to take action, and encourages the explorations of different faiths and ideas. CSH engages in many co-ed activities and classes with its counterpart, Stuart Hall High School.
As a member of the Network of Sacred Heart Schools, CSH participates in Network service projects, leadership seminars, and student exchange programs which offer students opportunities at Sacred Heart campuses throughout the USA. CSH was recognized as a Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education in 1993 and 1998. The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program is a United States government program.
