The building was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[1] It received Chicago Landmark status on July 27, 1983.[2]

Still standing at Irving Park Road and Marine Drive, the school was designed by Prairie School architect Barry Byrne, a onetime apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright.[3] The sculpture of Mary above the entrance, now removed, was the work of frequent Byrne collaborator Alfonso Iannelli.[4]

The Immaculata High School records are currently housed at the Women and Leadership Archives.[5]

Mildred Agnes (née Martínez) Prevost, the mother of Pope Leo XIV, attended the high school.[6]
