ABOUT US
OVERVIEW
Pomona Catholic School is a four-year Archdiocesan private high school for girls and co-educational middle school located in historic Pomona. Situated 30 minutes East of Los Angeles, Pomona Catholic enrolls students from the counties of Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Riverside.
100% of Pomona Catholic graduates are accepted into college.

Pomona Catholic's college-preparatory program includes all classes approved by the University of California. Pomona Catholic has also been an AP Capstone School since 2016.
MISSION
Pomona Catholic offers a safe, nurturing, and challenging college preparatory Catholic education in an environment which inspires students of all faiths to achieve academic excellence and develop into confident, service-oriented leaders.
PHILOSOPHY
Pomona Catholic School, a culturally diverse, Los Angeles Archdiocesan all girls’ high school and coed middle school, fosters the development of the whole person, stressing academic excellence, personal integrity, and sensitivity to others in their spiritual journeys.
Pomona Catholic works with families throughout their children’s adolescence, offering a comprehensive curriculum which serves a range of ability levels. Strong co-curricular and athletic programs enhance the social and physical development of each student, building confidence and leadership.
Synthesizing our values with 21st century technologies, we help middle school students transition to the rigors of high school work and educate high school women to be both proficient and Christ-centered, prepared for any future educational situation, demonstrating compassion, creativity, and the courage to act on their beliefs.
VALUES
Pomona Catholic stresses the total development of each child spiritually, morally, intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically. Pomona Catholic recognizes families as the primary educators and seeks to work with them in partnership throughout their children’s school years. We are committed to working with families to afford a Pomona Catholic education regardless of their socio-economic background.
