Overview
St. Mary's Academy is Oregon's oldest continuously-operating secondary school.
A nationally recognized school of excellence, St. Mary's is an established Catholic all-girls college preparatory high school that readies students for the future.
We invite you to review our Profile of Distinction.
With a 165-year tradition of educating young women, St. Mary's continues to serve a diverse school community and offer a challenging academic program which fosters the development of the whole person.
St. Mary's is large enough to provide a wide variety of experiences yet small enough to focus on the individual needs of each and every student.
In a nurturing and supportive environment, the faculty and staff challenge students to exceed their potential and provide them with skills, strength, and resources to meet those challenges.
Central Catholic High School is a college preparatory school committed to educating the whole person within the Catholic community.
Central Catholic focuses on the moral development and particular gifts of each student, challenging the individual to develop spiritually, intellectually, socially, and physically - and to live as a Christian witness in service to others.
Our vision is to achieve academic competence and intellectual excellence, formed in faith by community to be people for others.
