Founded in 1889 by the California province of the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary, Ramona Convent Secondary School is one of the oldest operating schools in California. As a Catholic school, Ramona provides a Christian environment in which young women develop academic excellence, spiritual depth, personal integrity, and leadership skills that will prepare them to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century. We welcome a diverse student body, both ethnically and economically, so that students can learn from each other and grow to appreciate different cultures and traditions. We have created a comprehensive curriculum that results in a well-rounded student who has learned to think critically and ethically. We offer our students the vital tools of education, self-assurance, leadership skills, and community involvement so that, regardless of their economic background, they will be able to succeed in their chosen career path and in the world. Ramona is justifiably proud of our graduates as they pursue their futures and make their contributions to the public and private sectors. Among their numbers are teachers and social workers, as well as doctors, nurses, lawyers, therapists, and heads of non-profit organizations.

Each year at graduation, the long lists of scholarships, grants, awards, and honors-at-entrance testify to the continued academic excellence of Ramona graduates.  In keeping with her tradition that now spans three centuries, as well as the charism of the Sisters of the Holy Names, Ramona continues to prepare young women for the responsibilities and leadership required in today’s competitive and complex world.
