Academics
Jesuit inspires young women and men to understand and meet the new challenges of the 21st century, focusing on the connected nature of the journey and the call to walk with one another with open hearts.
Spiritual Life
Spirituality
A Jesuit education is defined by the concept of cura personalis, or care of the whole person. We believe that our students’ spiritual life is just as important as their academic, athletic and co-curricular pursuits.
Athletics
Athletics
Our athletic program as a co-curricular activity is an integral part of the total education and growth experience at Jesuit High School. Athletics is designed to affirm and promote Ignatian values and engage student-athletes fully in mind, body, and spirit.
Our Community
Community
What makes the Jesuit community special? We believe the answer lies in how we support one another in all that we do--from cheering at football games to reaching out to those in need in our local area through the Christmas Food Drive. In everything, we lean on another in hope and faith.
Support JHS
Support JHS
For 60 years, Jesuit High School has been recognized for its rigorous curriculum, service-driven students, and talented, loving faculty. This requires the vision and dedication of our leaders, faculty and staff. But it also depends upon you – the support and generosity of our alumni, parents and friends of the Jesuit community.

Our Community

Jesuit High has evolved tremendously since 1956, when the Society of Jesus opened a new high school for young men on an old dairy farm. Today, Jesuit is a vibrant, coeducational, nationally recognized leader among Catholic schools. Our students are led by a passionate and inspiring faculty who balance high expectations (Age Quod Agis) with deep care for each student (cura personalis). Throughout the decades, community has remained a hallmark of our school.

Our Campus Ministry and Christian Service programs are the twin pillars of the Jesuit High community. Our weekly Friday liturgy, all-school Masses, and dynamic retreat program make deep imprints on our students' faith lives.

Students learn to be a person for and with others through community celebrations, assemblies and our annual Social Justice Week. They build community through more than 80 clubs, 59 athletics teams, and a world-class fine arts program.

Jesuit's community extends to the Portland metro area, where our students engage in Christian service, joyfully sort cans and boxes at the annual Christmas Food Drive, and participate with our sister Catholic high schools in the Walk for Joy, a fundraiser for the Children's Cancer Association.

Walk our hallways, come for a Friday Mass, or stop by a ballgame, and you will immediately sense why the Jesuit community is unique. We welcome you to join us.
