The nurturing environment at SMA also includes a strong commitment to the health and wellness of all students.
Recently, St. Mary's Academy became one of 2,000 schools worldwide to implement an AP Capstone Diploma programan innovative program that encourages students to develop skills for college and career success, including critical thinking, research, collaboration, and communication. Current student enrollment is 227.
Students at SMA are from the City of Inglewood and other Los Angeles communities including Ladera Heights, View Park, Baldwin Hills, Culver City, and Torrance.
