principal's welcome
Welcome to Santa Clara High School, home of the Saints!
As you embark on the journey of your high school education, choosing the right school will make a difference in your life. Committed to helping you reach your full potential, Santa Clara is set apart by our rich curriculum, expansive selection of college preparatory and AP/Honors courses, comprehensive co-curricular programs, technology integration, and a welcoming community. At Santa Clara, you will travel through the next four years with the support of spirited friends and expert, caring, and engaged teachers.
In our balanced curriculum of required and elective courses, you will learn careful reading, deep thinking, and clear writing. Because all students at Santa Clara take six classes each semester, you will be able to dig into your passions or discover new academic interests. Along with our teachers, two college counselors will ensure that your academic program prepares you for admission to college and, more importantly, for success in college and a meaningful life.
Our co-curricular offerings are designed to help you grow in self-knowledge and leadership skills. Is your passion athletics? Do you want to scream at a spirit rally until you’re hoarse? Serve others? Travel to Boston for the Harvard Model Congress? Plan a retreat? Build a robot? Lead your peers through student government or clubs? Sing, dance, or perform in a play? Santa Clara offers all this and more. At Santa Clara you can enjoy an abundance of competitive teams in our sports program, a full range of visual and performing arts, service activities, clubs, and spirit events.
I hope you will explore this website carefully to learn more about our program, our history and traditions, our outstanding record of college admission, and why more than 7,500 graduates are proud to call themselves Saints. I look forward to meeting you at Santa Clara High School, a community that will inspire you to reach your full potential and make a difference in the world.
God Bless,
