San Joaquin Memorial High School

For almost 75 years Memorial has provided a Catholic, college prep education to thousands in the Central Valley with the whole student in mind.

We have set ourselves apart by providing a safe and secure environment that is culturally and socio-economically diverse. Memorial provides the same academic and extra curricular activities as larger schools, but within a smaller and more inclusive community. Small class sizes allow Memorial faculty and staff to truly know their students and to foster the unique family feeling on campus. Even though Memorial is a college prep school with 99% graduates attending college each year, we hope to welcome and meet each student where they are academically and encourage their unique talents and gifts.

The Admissions Department is here to guide you through the application process and to assist you with the transition to our school. For immediate assistance or additional questions, please contact the Director of Admissions, Rainey Lewis
