St. Ephrem Maronite Catholic Academy was founded in the year 2000 as a parish parochial school operating under the jurisdiction of Our Lady of Lebanon Eparchy of Los Angeles.  The Academy is dedicated to the education of children for the glory of God and the salvation of souls.  St. Ephrem Academy’s guiding principle in pursuing its mission is faithful adherence to the truths of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church and the endearment of those truths to its students.

St. Ephrem Academy is dedicated to the great Saints of the Maronite Tradition, including St. Ephrem, St. Maron, St. Sharbel, and St. Rafka.  It is consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  A special loyalty to our Holy Father, the Pope is ever-present.Tuition is kept as low as possible to assure education is available to all.  The Academy relies heavily upon the generosity of its benefactors and parents who can afford to pay more than what is required.
