Hill-Murray School is a Catholic, coeducational school serving grades 7-12. It is located on a forty acre site in Maplewood, Minnesota, a suburb of Saint Paul. It was established in 1971 through the consolidation of Archbishop Murray Memorial High School and Hill High School. Archbishop Murray was founded in 1958 by the Benedictine Sisters as a school for young women. Hill High was established in 1959 by the Christian Brothers as a school for young men. The Middle School was added in 1989.

The student population is drawn from the Twin Cities, surrounding suburban areas, and nearby Wisconsin communities. Hill-Murray is one of only 19 Minnesota high schools accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
