Archer's Eastern Star Home Added to National Register of Historic Places

Archer's Eastern Star Home was added to the National Register of Historic Places in October. The 1931 Spanish Colonial Revival building has always been a place for women, making its historical designation even more meaningful.
The National Register of Historic Places names cultural resources worthy of preservation, giving these buildings a number of incentives because of their historic status.

The Eastern Star, named a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument in 1989, used to house retired women before Archer moved to the property in 1999. Over two decades later, Archer’s tremendous growth to nearly 500 students on a seven-acre historic Sunset Boulevard campus is a testament to the school's mission to inspire girls to become confident, ethical leaders, strengthening their voices and capacity to contribute positively to their communities.
The Archer School for Girls admits students of any race, color, religion, national and ethnic origin, sexual orientation or other legally protected status to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national and ethnic origin, sexual orientation or other legally protected status in its hiring or in the administration of its educational policies and programs, admissions policies, financial aid programs or other school-administered programs. 

The Archer School for Girls’ mission is to educate students in an environment specifically designed for girls. As such, the school will consider any candidate for admission who identifies as a girl. Once admitted to Archer, all students in good academic standing who abide by Archer’s code of conduct and who meet requirements for graduation will be eligible to receive an Archer diploma, regardless of any change in sexual identity or other legally protected status.
