About
Celebrating 150 Years of Excellence
Since 1876, Saint Mary’s has served as a beacon of academic excellence, faith formation, and character development. We are a regional Catholic, college preparatory high school, drawing students from throughout San Joaquin County and beyond. Our mission is rooted in the commitment to help each student grow in faith, rise as leaders, and reach their full potential — all within a safe, supportive, and values-based environment.
As a part of the Saint Mary’s family, your student will join a community where high expectations are paired with strong support. Our shared values and purpose unite families in pursuit of success — not only in academics, but in life. The discipline, work ethic, and character students develop here carry far beyond graduation, empowering them to become productive, compassionate, and confident individuals.
Now celebrating 150 years of legacy, Saint Mary’s has a rich and storied history with generations of alumni across the globe who are leaders in business, education, healthcare, service, and countless other fields. Your child will join this powerful network — one that proudly supports fellow graduates and shares a deep-rooted bond through the values instilled here. Our alumni know what it means to be a Saint Mary’s graduate and continue to uphold our mission built around the Salesian model: “Be who you are and be that well.”
Catholic values are woven into every aspect of our school and help shape our students into thoughtful, faith-filled, and principled young adults — ready to make a difference in the world, regardless of the paths they choose.
We encourage you to explore the many opportunities we offer to experience Saint Mary’s for yourself — whether through campus visits, shadow days, open houses, or conversations with our students and faculty. We also provide a wide range of tuition assistance and scholarship opportunities, because we believe that a Saint Mary’s education should be accessible to all who seek it.
We welcome students of all faiths and backgrounds and celebrate the richness each individual brings to our school community.
As we mark this historic 150th year, we reflect on all that has come before and look forward with excitement to what lies ahead.
Come be part of the next chapter. Welcome to Saint Mary’s.
Respectfully in the Lord,
