We offer 12 AP classes and a block schedule allowing for a collaboration period whereby teachers are available to provide extra support for students.
San Joaquin Memorial is a school where the student comes first. We want our students to reach their full potential intellectually, socially, physically and spiritually. Each year over 99% of our graduates continue their education by enrolling in college, with many being accepted to the finest colleges and universities in the country. Additionally in recent research we found that over 60% of Memorial graduates who go to college, also graduate with a degree. The local and the national averages are about 30%. Graduating from San Joaquin Memorial doubles your student's chances of getting a degree.
Our test scores exceed those accomplished by the Clovis, Fresno, Sanger and Central Unified School Districts. Over 75% of our student body are involved in on-campus student activities that encourage students to develop their talents and explore their interests. Our students are in a safe, motivating atmosphere where faith, respect and high expectations are a way of life.
We believe that every student can benefit from an extraordinary high school experience at San Joaquin Memorial. We are a Catholic, college preparatory school and we invite your student (regardless of religion) to be part of our academic community and be a part of our great tradition.
