Although located in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Sacramento the school was independent of the diocese. In 2005, Loretto High School celebrated its 50th anniversary. In June 2009, the school closed.[2] Many students transferred to coed Christian Brothers and fellow all-girls St. Francis High School to complete their high school education, while others decided to go to public schools such as Mira Loma High School or El Camino Fundamental High School. LocationThe school was founded by the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1955 under the leadership of Sister Nora Lowe. The campus was located at a {{convert|5|acre|m2|adj=on}} plot between El Camino Avenue and Bell Street in urban Sacramento. EducationAdmission to Loretto High School was selective and based on the student's previous school record, placement test, interview, recommendation, and application. Once accepted, freshmen immediately entered the challenging curriculum. Loretto operated on a trimester system, rather than a semester system. Students could take yearlong, 3-trimester classes, 2-trimester classes, or 1-trimester classes.

For example, if a student was enrolled in a yearlong performing-arts class, she was later required to take a one-trimester Art History class. Likewise, if she was enrolled in a yearlong visual-arts class, she was later required to take a one-trimester Music History class. In addition to Heritage Classes, Loretto offered other one-trimester courses in music, art, dance, and theater. Each spring, students participated in the Festival of the Arts, in which they showcased their creations and held performances in dance, drama, and music. Loretto offered a wide array of visual arts classes such Foundations in Visual Arts, Art 1/Art 2, Ceramics 1/Ceramics 2, Drawing 1/Drawing 2, Three-Dimensional Art 1/2, Watercolor, and Advanced Art, and Advanced Studio Art Many girls enrolled in one or three-term dance classes each year. There were three levels of dance groups: beginning (Broadway Bound Dance and a 1-trimester Dance course), intermediate (Intermediate Broadway Bound Dance), and advanced Broadway Bound Dance (Advanced Company). The dancers performed in an annual dance concert each spring, which included both company numbers and solos. The numbers are choreographed by both the students and teachers. Loretto had two levels of choral ensembles: Concert Choir (beginning), and Chamber Singers (advanced). The choirs held 2 annual concerts in December and May. In February 2009, the Loretto Chamber Singers performed at the Jammies Evening of Classical Music at the Mondavi Center at UC Davis.

In 2009, girls won a total of 2 gold medals, 1 silver medal, and 2 bronze medals. In the 2005-2006 school year the Drama Department was the center of significant controversy when a new instructor was dismissed at the insistence of the bishop after it was discovered that she lied on her employment application regarding her history of volunteering at an abortion clinic.[3] The family that originally reported the incongruence was later banned from campus due to threats made against the school.[4] ExtracurricularsIn addition to standard high school activities such as sports, clubs,and student counsels, Loretto offered unique opportunities for young women to grow. This included travel abroad opportunities to Russia, France, Australia and Asia, a strong commitment to service in the community through mandatory service requirements, and participation in academic competitions.
