  • It is with great pleasure that I invite you to tour Holy Family High School College Preparatory. We are a school that is centered on scholarship, faith, student activities, athletics, and the empowerment of young women. 100% of our graduates attend colleges of their choice and become leaders in an ever-changing world. HFHSCP students are taught to strive for excellence and to be grateful for the blessings God has provided. We are a school that celebrates being a family in Christ, and focuses on educating students in a positive and enriching environment, where girls celebrate and encourage each other to reach their potential. The energy and excitement at Holy Family are evident at Spirit activities, retreats, assemblies, dances, theater productions, musical performances, and the Faculty Talent Show, as well as in the way students and teachers show respect and appreciation for one another. An adventurous spirit is developed through opportunities to travel all around the world, from Egypt to Peru, Paris to Amsterdam, and Costa Rica to Alaska, and a strong will is cultivated by centering instruction and curriculum on critical and creative thinking. Come to a place where your presence will make a difference, and become a woman who will make history!
