La Reina Traditions

La Reina CrestLa Reina's program is based on the Notre Dame Educational Cornerstones. In 1964, Sister Mary Ralph Fahey, first principal at La Reina wrote, “The young women of the Conejo need a high school of high standards and excellent curriculum, but most of all they need a quality education based on the Catholic faith and values and a school where the individual student is valued and respected.”

Today, La Reina is proud to offer a challenging academic curriculum in a Catholic environment that celebrates the individual talents of our students. Click on the links below to learn more about how La Reina's many unique traditions nurture young women's academic, personal, and spiritual growth.
