History

Ribét Academy was founded by French-born Jacques Ribét in 1982 to create a diverse and challenging atmosphere that would support both academic achievement and personal growth. Ribét Academy moved to this existing site in 1992, having outgrown three previous locations around Los Angeles. Built-in 1923, this site was originally the Theme Hosiery factory. The building was converted into an all-boys High School, Pater Noster, by the Los Angeles Archdiocese which ran their school here from 1960.
