Our Roots Immaculata Academy was founded in 1928 by the Franciscan Sisters of St. Joseph, the sponsoring body. The school continues to be conducted by the Franciscan Sisters of St. Joseph and dedicated lay and religious teachers.
Immaculata Academy is devoted to the individual development of young women academically, spiritually, and personally through the encouragement of personal growth and participation in all the areas of school life. A family spirit is modeled through genuine concern and care for and among our students, faculty, staff and parents.

Spiritual Life A relationship exists among all members of the Immaculata Academy family that is respectful, accepting, caring, cooperative, and Christian in its understanding of the rights of all.
Students are prepared to meet the challenges of the adult world as true committed Christians through yearly retreats, a program of religious studies and a total of 80 hours of service activities which foster spiritual growth.
As always, our relationship with our God is emphasized and encouraged on a daily basis, along with liturgies and prayer services, which are facilitated by a campus minister. Liturgies, student and faculty retreats, reconciliation services and prayer services are organized by both the students and faculty, and, when appropriate, presided over by priests from the area.
In light of our Franciscan values of harmony, respect, service, peacemaking, stewardship, joy and prayer, we encourage each student to use her skills of leadership so as to be an instrument of positive change in our society.
