Mission

OUR MISSION

Ramona is a welcoming Catholic college-prep high school for girls sponsored by the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary (SNJM).

We graduate empowered, resilient, socially conscious young women prepared to meet the challenges of the 21st century global community.

We are the only school in southern California and the Los Angeles area sponsored by the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary. Our students benefit from being part of an international network of schools that share a common mission of empowering young women to reach their full potential.

"Catholic education, as envisioned by the Sisters, empowers people to unlock their God-given gifts. Helping people to develop their full potential is the foundation of the Sisters' mission and ministries. It is the heartbeat of an SNJM school."
(FRom "What makes an SNJM School SNJM?")
Let us go forth, cast fire, and liberate life!

A RAMONA GRADUATE IS:

A WOMAN OF FAITH

A CRITICAL THINKER

AN EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATOR

A CONFIDENT LEADER

A CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVER

COMMITTED TO PERSONAL GROWTH

Our commitment to instilling these skills and values has guided our curriculum, our co-curricular programs, and our future planning since our founding in 1889. Our mission ensures that every student who graduates from Ramona is independent and prepared for a meaningful life.

Because Holy Names (SNJM) values and high standards of excellence permeate our programs, each student is challenged to reach her full potential. Ramona graduates are prepared for life.
