Students and their families choose SHC for the strength of our academics, our diverse array of cocurricular opportunities and for the warmth of our inclusive and nurturing community. The tenets that SHC was founded upon in 1852 remain today: a commitment to serving San Francisco’s diverse youth and providing an academically rigorous, Catholic education. We are proud of our vibrant, close-knit community, and we all work together to educate today’s youth and create tomorrow’s leaders at our innovative private high school.
