Immaculate Heart is a private, Catholic, college preparatory school dedicated to the intellectual, spiritual, moral and social development of young women.

The mission of the school is to foster academic excellence in an environment that encourages students to become women of great heart and right conscience through leadership, service and a life-long commitment to Christian values.

In spirit and style, Immaculate Heart combines a mixture of the traditional and the innovative; of discipline and freedom, of play and work; of concern for things of the heart as well as of the mind; of a readiness to create and to celebrate.

Young women are challenged to think clearly, to choose wisely, and to acquire those values and inner resources that characterize mature, loving and productive members of our society.
