Academics

Middle School

Grades 6-8

Immaculate Heart Middle School is dedicated to fostering the intellectual, spiritual, moral, and social development of young women in grades 6-8, preparing them for the rigor and challenge of academics at the high school level and beyond.

The mission of the school in partnership with parents 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 commitment to Christian values. Immaculate Heart combines a mixture of the traditional and the innovative; discipline and freedom, work and celebration as well as concern for issues incorporating the mind and the heart to inspire creativity and life-long learning. Young women are challenged to think both objectively and critically to choose wisely, and to acquire those values and inner resources that characterize compassionate and contributing members of society.

Immaculate Heart has been developing young women of great heart and right conscience since 1906.

Academic Integrity

Immaculate Heart believes that academic integrity is closely allied to the development of self-esteem.  A young woman demonstrates her academic integrity when she produces her own original work, when she takes an exam without cheating, and when she acknowledges another’s ideas by identifying author and source. Therefore the Honor Code was created to help guide students to strive for excellence, to take pride in their work, and to develop a moral compass.

Honor Code

As a young woman of integrity,
guided by my heart and conscience,
I promise to uphold the values of Immaculate Heart.

I pledge to be honorable in my work:

A Catholic, independent college preparatory school for girls in grades 6 through 12, Immaculate Heart has been located on a beautiful hillside property in the Los Feliz area of Los Angeles since our founding by the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in 1906. We celebrate more than a century of nurturing the spiritual, intellectual, social and moral development of students as they distinguish themselves as women of great heart and right conscience.
