The sisters opened Cathedral School in Los Angeles in 1886. This became the first parochial school in the city. The sisters later purchased a fifteen-acre plot of land for $10,000 in the Hollywood Hills at Western and Franklin Avenues where they built a convent and a high school with boarding facilities. Transportation for students in the early 1900s consisted of wagons on dirt roads. During this time Western Avenue changed from a rutted wagon road to a major artery, Los Feliz from a cow path to a boulevard, and the surrounding olive and orange groves yielded first to California bungalows, then to apartment structures and business and industrial complexes. The school was originally called Immaculate Heart College, even though it began as a high school. The College portion opened in the following decade."</i> -- unknown author.</li></ul></dd></dl></dd></dl><dl><dd><b>Call number</b>: CHS-5522</dd>
