OLPH Catholic School SCV

⛪️ Today, we celebrate a beautiful milestone in OLPH history!

On August 13, 1961, 65 years ago today, the first Mass was celebrated in the new Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Newhall. That sacred moment helped lay the foundation for generations of faith, Catholic education, service, and fellowship.

We gratefully remember the clergy, religious sisters, parishioners, educators, families, students, and alumni whose prayers and dedication have strengthened our parish and school community. May Our Lady of Perpetual Help continue to guide and protect us as we remain united in Christ and proud to be Ambassadors for Christ. 🙏💙

📚✨ Spotted at C3!

Mrs. Shelly Smith, OLPH Librarian, was spotted at the Archdiocese of Los Angeles C3 Conference, continuing her commitment to lifelong learning and professional growth.

At OLPH, we believe our educators lead by example. By investing in new ideas, innovative practices, and their own professional development, they inspire a love of learning in every student they serve.

Thank you, Mrs. Smith, for representing OLPH and for your dedication to excellence in Catholic education! 💙💛

Teachers who never stop learning inspire students who never stop growing. 🍎✨

Today, members of the OLPH faculty and Principal had the opportunity to attend the C3 Conference hosted by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles; a day dedicated to innovation, collaboration, and professional growth. Through hands-on learning, technology integration, AI, leadership development, and best practices in Catholic education, our team continues to invest in their own growth so they can provide the very best learning experiences for our students.

Representing OLPH at today’s conference were:

* Ms. Cristina Jehle, Physical Education Instructor
* Mrs. Olivia Patino, Intervention Teacher
* Mrs. Monica Castillo, Technology Instructor
* Dr. Lucie Menjivar, Principal

At Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School, we believe that lifelong learning isn’t just something we teach; it’s something we model. By continually growing in knowledge, faith, and innovation, we are better equipped to inspire excellence, foster curiosity, and prepare our students to thrive academically, spiritually, and personally.

Together, we learn. Together, we grow. Together, we lead. 💙💛

A new school year begins with prayer 🙏🏻

As we prepare to welcome our students back, we invite our OLPH community to join us in celebrating the Welcome Back Mass with Catholic schools across the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. There will be a special blessing of the new principals at this Mass.

📅 August 5, 2026
🕣 8:30 a.m.
📍 Cantwell Sacred Heart of Mary High School

Before the first bell rings, we pause to thank God for His many blessings and ask Him to guide our students, families, teachers, and staff throughout the year ahead.

🙏 Prayer

Lord Jesus,
Bless every student with confidence to learn, every family with Your peace, and every educator with wisdom and compassion. Fill our classrooms with kindness, our hearts with faith, and our community with Your love. May we always seek You in every lesson, every friendship, and every moment. Amen.
