St. Bonaventure High School is owned by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Los Angeles and is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. The School is named in honor of the Patron of the San Buenaventura Mission and the City of Ventura.

St. Bonaventure, a Franciscan priest, served as General of the Franciscan Friars Minor, Bishop of Albano and Cardinal. His work as a philosopher and theologian earned him the title of Seraphic Doctor, hence the school mascot of Seraph, the highest order of angel.

Currently over 750 students from all areas of Ventura County attend St. Bonaventure High School. Working in cooperation with parents, the administration, the faculty and staff are committed to drawing out the best in students. Mirrored also in the task are the words of James Francis Cardinal McIntyre at the dedication of St. Bonaventure High School on January 21, 1968:

"There is no perfection in academic achievements possible
without recognizing the existence of God."
