一、沿 革

民國五十五年，天主教嘉義教區牛會卿主教為宏揚耶穌基督仁愛精神、推廣天主教全人教育，並求兩性教育在嘉雲地區之就學機會均等發展下，克服多重困難創辦了本校。

學校位於嘉義市北郊荖藤里，校地三甲，遠方遼望阿里山山脈連綿聳立，附近平疇廣裘、蒼翠環繞、鳥語花香，是年輕學子學習成長的好環境。創校之始，校名為「嘉義縣私立宏仁女子初級中學」，聘張懷顏神父為首任校長。民國五十七年增設高中部，學校易名為「嘉義縣私立宏仁女子高級中學」，民國七十一年嘉義市恢復省轄市，校名又改為「嘉義市私立宏仁女子高級中學」。其間，本校曾先後附設民眾補習班、夜補校，提供失學女性進修學習機會。民國八十六年，呂校長屆齡退休，由訓導主任吳中湖老師接任。民國九十二年，由翟永麗女士接任校長。民國九十六年，由總務主任兼代理校長鄭峰銘接任校長，民國一０三年由教務主任張訓維兼任代理校長，民國一０四年二月由孫宏禮先生接任校長，民國一０七年八月由吳垣甫先生接任校長，民國一０九年八月由人事主任劉應瑜先生接任校長，民國一一二年八月由許耀文先生接任校長。

五十餘年來，承上天助佑，教育主管機關、董事會社會各界人士及歷年全體教職的共同努力支持下。本校經現任校長許耀文治理下校務穩定發展，為雲嘉地區唯一優質完全中學。 

二、現 況

本校現有國中部4班，高中部5班，合計9班，學生共230餘人。教職員工30餘人。教學設備有全觸控式電子黑板，e化電子白板教室、特別教室、社團教室、游泳池、大禮堂、PU運動場等一應俱全。

教育乃百年大計，校務皆朝階段性與前瞻性調整規劃，近年在國際化與資訊化趨勢下，特別加強英語及資訊教學，同時在師資陣容及教學環境上，也不斷精益求精、充實設備。
