St. Joseph High School is a private, Roman Catholic high school in Santa Maria, California. It is located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles.

In 2013, Shane Villalpando, a former student, was sentenced to one year in Santa Barbara County Jail and five years’ probation for having unlawful sex with underage teenagers at the high school.[2] Dean of students John Walker and principal Joseph Myers didn’t report a rape to law enforcement because they thought the incident had already been reported, but both men were required by law to immediately report suspected child abuse, and both ended up resigning from their positions in 2012, were convicted of a misdemeanor, and ordered to pay several hundred dollars in fines.[2]
