SouthWestern Academy

The San Marino campus is located in the heart of this beautiful residential neighborhood 10 miles east of downtown Los Angeles and just south of Pasadena. This 8 acre campus is bordered by dormitories and classrooms that overlook athletic fields and park-like grounds designed for recreation and relaxation.

Lincoln Hall is the main academic building, assembly, and study hall. It also houses 9 classrooms along with a science lab, library, and computer lab. All classrooms and dorms are wired for high-speed internet access.

SOUTHWESTERN OFFERS and shall continue to offer programs to strengthen students through small classes - normally of eight to twelve students - with personalized lessons, achievement grouping, two unique campuses in safe environments, and especially by supporting student achievements through an involved, nurturing, caring staff who create an environment for individual student success.

SOUTHWESTERN SHALL BALANCE ENROLLMENTS by actively promoting cultural diversity and social heterogeneity in its student body. We seek to admit motivated, successful students who want smaller classes and personalized instruction. We believe also in giving a chance to students who may have experienced unsuccessful schooling elsewhere, when they have the abilities and willingness to try. We believe in giving students love and encouragement to overcome obstacles, and in providing and stimulating participation in a wide variety of activities and athletics that they might not encounter in a larger setting. We work with students who want to be here and who will help their fellow students; if a student continues to hurt the community, we will help find more appropriate placement for that student. Our staff decisions about students will be based on the assessment of each case, rather than a comparison with inflexible standards. We will work to recruit American and international students who will benefit from and add to our school.
