History
Mary Star of the Sea was established in 1954 by Mary Star of the Sea Parish. There is also a Mary Star of the Sea elementary in San Pedro, which was founded in 1922.

In 1959, the Archdiocese created a separate boys' high school, Fermin Lasuen High School, and Mary Star of the Sea was transitioned to a girls' school. Fermin Lasuen was closed in 1971, and MSoS once again became coeducational.

The school was originally located on 8th Street and moved to a brand new campus on Taper Avenue in the fall of 2007.

On June 10, 2021, the girls' basketball team captured the school's first CIF-Southern Section sports championship with a 54–50 victory over Agoura of Agoura Hills for the Division 4-AA title in front of a large standing room only crowd at Mary Star High.
