Academics
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.
