The independence students gain and the friendships and bonds they forge while at our school enable them to realize success, both in college and life. We think that is pretty invaluable. The mission of Besant Hill School is the development of each individual's intellectual and artisti…

It’s about being empowered as an individual by a medley of opportunities for self-expression and growth, from arts to social activism, and athletics to political action. And it’s about being prepared for life beyond the walls of Beth Tfiloh. We take great pride in our Beth Tfiloh alumni who are making a difference throughout the…

Belen Jesuit Preparatory School was founded in 1854 in Havana, Cuba, by Queen Isabel II of Spain. Educating students were assigned to the Society of Jesus's priests and brothers (the Jesuits), whose teaching tradition is synonymous with academic excellence and spiritual discipline.
