St Cyril Of Jerusalem Church

What St Cyril Of Jerusalem Church does

St. Cyril of Jerusalem School is a private, non-profit Catholic K-8 school located at 4548 Haskell Ave in Encino, California, operating under the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Founded in 1950 by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, the school serves students from Preschool through 8th grade, drawing families primarily from the San Fernando Valley. It holds full accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and the Western Catholic Educational Association (WCEA) and reports a 100% high school acceptance rate, with graduates matriculating to Notre Dame, Crespi, Louisville, Chaminade, Alemany, and other Catholic and private preparatory high schools.

The school's core product is its integrated Preschool through 8th grade curriculum, segmented into Early Childhood (Preschool/Pre-K), Primary Grades (K-2), Intermediary Grades (3-5), and Junior High (6-8). Curriculum is supplemented by a technology stack that includes SmartBoards in K-8 classrooms, a MacBook Lab, a 1:1 iPad program for grades 5-8, robotics and coding instruction, MinecraftEDU for history projects, and VR/AR-based learning using HTC Vive and Oculus Quest headsets. Extracurriculars span CYO athletics (volleyball, basketball, softball, football, track, swimming), performing arts, Mock Trial, Academic Decathlon, chess, fencing, and a recurring Galileo Summer Camps partnership. Total headcount is reported as 9, though faculty and staff together claim over 200 years of combined teaching experience, indicating the actual operational staff count is materially higher than the tracked figure.

The revenue model is tuition-driven. Standard K-8 tuition is $9,962 per child per year, with a discounted rate of $7,736 for participating St. Cyril Parish members. Preschool tuition is tiered from $4,111 to $10,541 annually based on session length and days per week. The school also generates fee revenue from registration ($350), technology ($255), books and materials ($375), iPad usage ($632), and before- and after-school care running from 6:45 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Annual contracts are the norm, with FACTS-managed monthly payment plans and an early-payment discount. GTM is sales-led through a structured admissions calendar: open houses in January, applications in February, admissions letters in March, and registration by April. Marketing is multi-channel (website, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, RSS) but ultimately bottoms out in on-campus tours and assessments. Leadership comprises Principal Angelica Pugliese, Pastor Fr. Danny Guinto, and Director of Admissions Dr. Patricia Marinelli Casey, Ph.D.
