Listed in this section of the website are descriptions of Hill-Murray's graduation requirements, academic departments, available courses, and websites recommended by departments for coursework or personal exploration. As you review the descriptions, we think you'll discover a school that offers you an excellent education- one that prepares you well for further education or a start on a career. But the descriptions below cannot adequately tell you what Hill-Murray is really all about, because being a student here means much more than just the classes in which you are enrolled.

Dr. Susan Paul, Principal

Being a student here means hard work. High standards and academic excellence are expectations for each student. You'll also find teachers that care and are willing to help you be successful. It is their goal to encourage you to find your special niche, and help you excel!

Being a student here means feeling secure and safe, an environment that lets you learn, grow, and make friends. It means becoming involved and developing your skills and interests through school activities and organizations. Over 90% of students here participate in a least one athletic or cocurricular activity. It means having the opportunity to focus on your spiritual life, through worship, service to others, and personal exploration of your faith in an affirming Catholic school environment that invites all denominations. And it means fun! You'll find a welcoming community of new friends, some that will last a lifetime.

We think Hill-Murray is a special place. I encourage you to visit and explore our school yourself. Spend a day, talk to our students and teachers, and stop by to meet me. My door is always open.
