About
Looking Ahead to the Next 150 Years
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 helping each student grow in faith, lead with integrity, and reach their full potential—all within a safe, supportive, and values-based environment.
As a member of the Saint Mary's family, your student will join a community where high expectations are matched with unwavering 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 extend far beyond graduation, preparing them to become compassionate leaders and confident contributors to their communities.
Last year, our community proudly celebrated 150 years of Saint Mary's High School—a remarkable milestone made possible by generations of students, families, faculty, staff, alumni, and supporters who helped shape our legacy. As we turn our attention to the future, we do so with gratitude for those who came before us and with excitement for the next 150 years of faith, excellence, and opportunity.
Today, Saint Mary's is home to a vibrant network of alumni around the world who lead in business, education, healthcare, public service, ministry, and countless other professions. Your student will become part of this enduring tradition and lifelong community—one united by the values instilled through a Salesian education and inspired by the guiding principle, "Be who you are and be that well."
Catholic values are woven into every aspect of our school and help shape students into thoughtful, faith-filled, and principled young adults who are prepared to make a meaningful difference in the world, regardless of the paths they choose.
We encourage you to experience Saint Mary's firsthand through campus tours, shadow days, open houses, and conversations with our students and faculty. We also offer a variety of tuition assistance and scholarship opportunities because we believe a Saint Mary's education should be accessible to all who seek it.
We welcome students of all faiths and backgrounds and celebrate the unique gifts and perspectives each individual brings to our community.
While our 150-year legacy provides a strong foundation, our greatest chapters are still ahead. We remain committed to preparing the next generation of leaders while honoring the values and traditions that have defined Saint Mary's for generations.
Come be part of what's next. Welcome to Saint Mary's High School.
Respectfully in the Lord,
