The Tri-School Consortium
Serra is a single-gender school with abundant coed connections.
Teenage boys need to build healthy and meaningful relationships with teenage boys and girls. That’s the guiding principle of Serra’s formal partnership with sister schools Mercy Burlingame and Notre Dame Belmont.
Our three schools share academic, cultural and social experiences in the form of classes, clubs, music and drama productions, retreats and social events.
