“Everyone at Immaculate is welcoming, kind and understanding. When they say ‘everyone is part of our community,’ it isn’t an exaggeration. You’ll find friends in every grade, every class, and every hallway. Just be yourself and we’re all going to love you!” Kevin B. ‘24
As a premiere, Catholic, co-ed, college preparatory school we put the needs of our students at the center of everything we do, including getting connected as new Mustangs! You will quickly meet new friends at New Student Orientation, Freshman Social, class retreats, pep rallies, club activities and more. Each year, students from many different zip codes and middle schools begin their journey at Immaculate and it doesn’t take long to feel right at home. Our students form bonds that last, from the first day of freshman year to their 50th reunion. The sense of faith and family is something you notice the moment you step through the doors of Immaculate at your Mustang for a Day shadow visit and it remains long after graduation.

Immaculate’s athletes - and those who cheer them on - are united by one simple thing: A PURE LOVE OF THE GAME! It’s pregame butterflies and postgame celebrations. It’s bonds you form with teammates and fierce competitions where you leave everything on the field. It’s pride in working just as hard in the classroom as you do in your sport.
Athletic excellence is a 60-year tradition at Immaculate as showcased by the banners that hang in our gymnasium, but it isn’t just about our winning tradition. Commitment and the pursuit of excellence is where the real reward is!

“I joined the Inspire Choir because I love to sing and it easily became my favorite extracurricular activity due to the friends I made and the fun we had singing. I soon realized that I also loved bringing joy to people through song, such as during our trips to area nursing homes to perform!” Carly M. ‘24 to work on set design, lighting, sound and more.
