At Mayfield Senior School, an all-girls college preparatory high school, we educate the minds and hearts of compassionate and inquisitive students and guide them to become joyful, faith-filled, confident young women. We know how girls learn best and provide a community of discovery and excellence, rooted in the Catholic values of the Society of the Holy Child Jesus. “Being a Holy Child school means that everything we do – academics, arts, sports, service – is done with the powerful belief that God is an active presence in our lives,” says Head of School, Kate Morin. Mayfield’s Pasadena campus is located in a beautiful residential neighborhood with a historic mansion as our main hall – it’s truly a second home.
We are cheering for you during your important high school selection journey! Please know we are here to help you every step of the way. When Head of School, Kate Morin, introduces girls and their families to Mayfield, her message is clear and simple. “Mayfield is a place of joy and love,” she says. We are a place where you’ll be appreciated for being exactly who you are, and who you will become. The application process at Mayfield is all about being yourself. We want to get to know you and find out more about you. There are no wrong answers!
Challenging, interactive and supportive.
Dynamic, inquisitive, and joyful learners.
For more than 25 years, Mayfield’s signature Conservatory for the Arts program has produced artistic thinkers who know how to integrate creativity and expression into their lives. Our UC-accredited after-school courses unfold on stage, in studios, and in hands-on workshops as our teachers – who are all working artists – train the next generation of artists to discover their unique voices. Our Cubs athletes compete in 12 different sports and repeatedly score Prep League championships and earn their way to CIF State finals competitions. In a breakthrough partnership with the Girl Scouts of America robotics program, Mayfield students can learn advanced skills under the guidance of mentors from Nasa’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and Cisco Systems in a dedicated, 856-square-foot robotics design space.
