Alumni Scholarship(s)

Thank you for considering Serra High School as a part of your giving.

We believe Serra is unique in the true sense of the word.  The student’s academic performance is stunning.  Last year we graduated 131 seniors, 100% have been accepted to 4 year schools, 37 are going to a University of California or California State University.  More would have gone to a UC or CSU, except many received full scholarships to private schools.

The athletic performance of Serra’s teams over the past few years is likely the best in the United States for a school of its size.  The grade point average for most of the teams is over 3.0. Colleges and Universities want Serra students for academic reasons as well as athletic reasons.

Serra achieved this performance on a budget of $4.4M for 566 students.   That’s roughly $7,700 per student or half the cost of public schools in California and 1/2 to 1/3 the cost of most private schools.

We hope the information here will give you a deeper insight into Serra. Serra’s mission is developing morally aware and academically strong individuals who are of service to society and knowing that we serve a student population whose families make great sacrifices to support the Catholic college preparatory education provided by Serra, again we thank you for your consideration.

 

Sincerely,
