  1. We are founded on the 470-year-old Jesuit educational goal of forming men for others for the Greater Glory of God. Our graduates are leaders in their communities. They strive to be competent, religious, loving, open to growth, and committed to justice. When you meet our graduates, you will find that they are leaders: in the business world, in the arts, in religious life, in politics, in the sciences and technology, in sports, and especially in the community. Our school and Jesuit education aim to prepare our young men to be leaders-- to engage the world, not just to observe it. As you encounter our students and graduates, you see that they are well rounded and confident as they strive for the Magis, excellence in all things. This is part of the Jesuit goal of "Cura personals," the formation of the whole person: mind, spirit, and body. A U of D Jesuit graduate has learned to feel compassion for the victims of injustice and has a sense of urgency to implement societal changes that will help such victims protect their rights and human dignity. He is involved in public service and feels an obligation as a Christian to participate in the building of a humane, civic, and ecclesial community in a way that respects the pluralism of that community. We offer this kind of education because we want our students to do well and make a difference in their world. When the first Jesuit schools were founded 470 years ago, their goal was to do God's work and work with others for the good of all in the Kingdom of God's service. Jesuit education helps students realize that talents are gifts to be developed, not for self-satisfaction or self-gain, but rather, with God's help, for the good of the entire human family. "Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam," for the greater glory of God. University of Detroit Jesuit High School and Academy is committed to providing the highest quality of Jesuit college preparatory education to young men in southeast Michigan. In collaboration with parents, U of D Jesuit will challenge its students to go beyond academic excellence, be reflective, be committed to the service of personal faith, and the promotion of justice: to be men for others. Since 1877, U of D Jesuit has earned a reputation for academic excellence and a commitment to faith and service. In part, this reputation encourages students from the entire Metro Detroit area to attend 'The High.' Attracting students from St. Clair Shores and Grosse Pointe to the East, Dearborn and Grosse Ile to the South, Plymouth and Northville to the West, Rochester Hills and Bloomfield Hills to the North, the city of Detroit, and all points in between, is only one aspect that makes U of D Jesuit unique. More than 940 students in grades seven through twelve currently attend You of D Jesuit. In 2018, our 168 seniors were accepted into four-year universities, community colleges, or military service academies such as the University of Michigan, Colgate, Boston University, United States Military Academy, Air Force Academy, Boston College, Michigan State, and University of Southern California. Also, they were awarded more than $23 million in scholarships and grants. Since 2000, U of D Jesuit has had more National Merit and National Achievement Semi-Finalists than any other Catholic school in the state. In the beautiful Jesuit tradition, U of D Jesuit is not solely interested in "the numbers" - we seek to enroll a diverse student body of young men who are academically ambitious and who are open to the idea of growing and maturing into "Men for Others." Our goal is to form students who are open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice. U of D Jesuit is proudly accredited by the Jesuit Schools Network (JSN) and North Central Association, an accrediting division of AdvancED. JSN initiates programs and provides services that enable its member schools to sustain their Ignatian vision and Jesuit mission of educational excellence in forming young men and women of competence, conscience, and compassion. Our accreditation by the North Central Association demonstrates our dedication to continuous improvement in all that we do. View full school
  2. Strake Jesuit is a Catholic, four-year college preparatory school for young men grades 9-12. The school was founded in 1960 by the New Orleans Province of the Society of Jesus, a religious order of priests and brothers, also known as the Jesuits. The Jesuits bring over four and half centuries of tradition and commitment to academic excellence. Located in southwest Houston, the school physically resembles a small college with its various buildings spread around its fifty-two-acre campus. This provides the school community with numerous outdoor grassy spaces and shaded areas for gathering and personal enjoyment. The current student population numbers just over 1,100. Faculty, staff, and administration total over 110 yielding a student-to-teacher ratio of 10:1. Also, fifty-seven percent of the faculty have advanced degrees in their areas. Ninety-one percent of the student body participates in extracurricular activities directed by numerous schools school faculty members. The student body–with forty-five percent of minorities–and the staff reflect Houston's diverse character. To ease the tuition burden for their families, approximately 15% of the student population receives assistance from a financial aid budget of $1.8 million. The first day a student steps foot on campus, he begins actively working with his teachers, coaches, and counselors to practice the ideals of Jesuit education – to become a Man for Others. We often talk about being a Man for Others at Strake Jesuit because it is part of Jesuit education's rich spiritual and intellectual tradition. For nearly 500 years, Jesuits have been teaching, coaching, and forming students to be loving, religious, committed to doing justice, intellectually competent, physically fit, and open to growth. And in Houston, we have been faithfully dedicated to that mission at Strake Jesuit since 1960. Our students commit to intellectual growth, and they learn to lead by being engaged in our school community and beyond. They also experience the joy and responsibility of serving others by completing a minimum of 155 service hours during their time at Strake Jesuit. Whether in the classroom or together on retreat at our Retreat and Leadership Center, competing on one of our athletic teams, our outstanding debate team, or in our accomplished music programs, our students are cultivating values and learning skills that we believe will prepare them not only for college but for life. The Strake Jesuit graduate is approaching the threshold of young adulthood. Leaving the childhood behind has involved anxiety and embarrassment and taking fearful first steps into sexual identity, independence, first love, or first job. It has also involved physical, emotional, and mental development that brought out strengths, abilities, and characteristics adults and peers began to appreciate. During the four years before graduation, he began to realize he could do some things well, sometimes very well, like playing basketball, acting, writing, doing math, fixing or driving cars, making music, or making money. There have also been failures and disappointments. Even these, however, have helped the student to move toward maturity. Fluctuating between highs and lows of fear and confidence, love and loneliness, confusion, and success, the Strake Jesuit student at graduation has negotiated during these years many of the difficulties of adolescence. On the other hand, the graduate has not reached the maturity of the college senior. During his senior year of high school, he is especially beginning to awaken to complexity to discover many puzzling things about the adult world. He does not understand why adults break their promises, how the economy "works," or why there are wars, or what power is and how it ought to be used. Yet he is old enough to begin framing the questions. And so, as some of the inner turmoil of the past few years begins to settle, he looks out on the adult world with a sense of wonder, anxious to enter that world, yet still unable to make sense of it. He is more and more confident among his peers. He can more easily read the clues of the youth culture of which he is a part. Furthermore, he is independent enough to choose his response. As for the adult world, he is still a "threshold person," cautiously entering adulthood. View full school

  7. Jesuit High School is a non-profit, Catholic, college-preparatory school for boys in grades 8-12 that serves students of all religious faiths. It is located in Mid-City New Orleans on Carrollton Avenue between Palmyra and Banks Streets. Jesuit's curriculum is structured to develop disciplined habits, stimulate critical thinking, and develop the skills necessary to express that thinking. The school strives to instill five characteristics in its students. The goal is to educate our young men to be open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice. The Jesuit approach to education is based on nearly five hundred years of excellence, originated by St. Ignatius Loyola, who founded the Society of Jesus ("the Jesuits") in 1540. It begins with a deep respect for students and their potential, a principle the Jesuits call cura personalis. The Jesuit faculty challenges students to strive for personal excellence in all aspects of life — intellectual, emotional, moral, and physical. That principle, called Magis, accounts for intellectual exchange's rigor and the varied challenges Blue Jays experience at Jesuit and in the world beyond. The present Jesuit High School of New Orleans was established in 1847 as one department of the College of the Immaculate Conception by the Fathers of the Society of Jesus. The College was located on Baronne and Commons Streets. In 1911 the collegiate departments were transferred to the site of the present Loyola University of New Orleans. The high school department remained in the buildings on Baronne Street for another 15 years. In 1926, the school moved to its present location on Carrollton Avenue between Banks and Palmyra Streets due to increasing enrollment. The mission of Jesuit High School as a Catholic college preparatory school is to develop in its students the competence, conscience, and compassion that will enable them to be men of faith and men for others. We take our mission quite seriously at Jesuit. This statement drives all that we do — day in and day out. Every trade has its facts and figures, and every worker needs a command of those facts and figures. Students leave Jesuit with much more than facts and figures. They leave knowing that information powerful, and how they use that information is just as powerful. Each day young people face decisions about using what they know and deciding what to do the right thing. Our goal is to produce young men with a sense of right and wrong, young men who know facts but also know that facts are only manifestations of God's creation and, as such, are to be valued deeply and used only for the greater glory of God. We are not alone. And we certainly are not a gated community. Each student at Jesuit is one of 1,385 young men from different backgrounds — socially, economically, and culturally. We are a microcosm of our broader community. And we have an opportunity to explore our common bond of humanity. What do I owe my neighbor simply because we are both human beings, both creatures of God? How we interact, how we play, how we compete, how we study, how we worship all reflect one profound truth: how we love each other. And so daily at Jesuit, we practice the basic tenet of our faith: that we love one another as our God loves us. Jesuit is committed to the belief that we are created to know, love, and serve God that each person, though sinful, is personally known and loved by God and that this love invites a response to God's love, a gift of oneself. The fundamental purpose of our school is to form "men for others" — men of faith who are motivated by genuine Gospel charity, new men transformed by the message of Christ, who are open to their own time and to the future leaders who have acquired a way of life that is a proclamation of the love of Christ, of faith, and justice. College can be challenging. One reason young men choose to spend the most critical years of their lives at Jesuit is to prepare themselves for this next level. From what is taught to how it is taught, everything at Jesuit is geared to preparing each person for a successful college experience and a successful life in the 21st century. Jesuit is proud to be part of a 460-year Catholic and Ignatian tradition of educating young men and women to be in service for and with others. Jesuit's curriculum and courses are structured to develop disciplined habits, stimulate critical thinking, and develop the skills necessary to express that thinking. The school strives to instill five characteristics in its students. The goal is to educate our young men to be open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice. As described in the "Profile of the Jesuit Graduate at Graduation," these principles guide our curriculum development and teaching. View full school
  8. Jesuit High School, located in Portland, Oregon, was founded in 1956 by the Society of Jesus and is part of a 450-year Jesuit educational tradition. Jesuit High School is a non-profit, coeducational college-preparatory school for grades 9-12 that serves students of all religious faiths. Jesuit's curriculum is founded on the educational philosophy of Jesuit founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola. It takes a holistic view of adolescent education, including nurturing the spiritual, physical, emotional, intellectual, and aesthetic gifts each student brings to campus. Jesuit hopes to accomplish this development by demonstrating a personal concern for individuals, and articulate wisdom, enthusiasm, and a sense of community. In so doing, we hope to graduate leaders who are committed to serving God and their fellow men and women through a profound sense of justice founded in love, i.e., leaders who are "men and women for others." A Board of Trustees oversees the operation of Jesuit High School. The board ensures and provides the school's spiritual tone and direction, consistent with the purposes and traditions of Roman Catholic and Jesuit education. The board also monitors Jesuit High School's business affairs.

It does not discriminate based on race, color, national and ethnic origin, or disability, which can be reasonably accommodated in administering its educational policies, admissions policies, financial aid programs, and athletic and other school administered programs.

As we move forward with best educational practices to inspire young women and men to understand and meet the new challenges of the 21st century, we focus on the interconnected nature of our journey and the need to pay attention to the myriad ways that God encourages us to be attentive and loving towards those we are called to serve. We strive to walk side by side with parents, alums, and fellow Jesuit companions throughout the world to form young men and women of competence, conscience, and compassion who will transform the world in the image and likeness of a loving God.

  9. Nearly 475 years ago, St. Ignatius of Loyola founded the Society of Jesus, a community of Jesuit priests. He dedicated his life and the Jesuits' work to Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam, "For the Greater Glory of God." This dedication and vision of St. Ignatius continues to live on today in the students and community at Jesuit High School. Firmly rooted in Jesuit ideals and Catholic educational tradition, Jesuit provides a dynamic environment for academic, spiritual, and social growth. For nearly 50 years, Jesuit High School has challenged students with a rigorous academic program in the classical, Jesuit tradition. Today, that tradition continues through a comprehensive study of the liberal arts and a strong commitment to a Jesuit mission that prepares students for college and beyond. A Jesuit education offers more than an excellent college preparatory curriculum. Students attend from throughout the Sacramento Metropolitan area and are challenged to realize their full potential as lifelong learners and leaders in service to others. By graduation, these young men are academically competent, open to growth, loving, and aware of God in their lives and the world. When a young man enters Jesuit High School, he becomes part of a global community of men and women proud to have attended a Jesuit high school or university. Whether in Sacramento or cities throughout the United States and abroad, graduates feel a connection with others who have graduated from a Jesuit school. This network of Jesuit-school graduates welcomes Jesuit High School alumni into a community that can open doors in all walks of life. Jesuit High School of Sacramento is a Roman Catholic college preparatory dedicated to forming competent young men into conscientious leaders in compassionate service to others for the greater glory of God. "The educational philosophy of Jesuit High School is Catholic and, therefore, it is based on a faith response to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is Jesuit and, therefore, it is formed by Ignatius of Loyola's vision of Christ and the world. The school's purpose is to lovingly serve the young men of the wider Sacramento area, from every ethnic and socio-economic background and a broad spectrum of academic achievement. In support of parents as primary educators, our role is to help our students realize the fullness of their spiritual, intellectual, artistic, physical, and social potential. The spiritual dimension of the student's development is fostered through their incorporation into a community where Catholic beliefs, morals, and values, inspired by faith in the Gospel and a belief in the full brotherhood/sisterhood of the human family, are taught, professed, and experienced, and where personal action is proposed as a response. The intellectual dimension is developed through a curriculum oriented towards college-bound students and an environment that fosters academic excellence, nurturing reflective analysis, and creative expression. The students are encouraged to develop their artistic and affective nature through exposure to and participation in the Fine Arts. Thus they come to an appreciation of the creative spirit which is within and around them. The students should learn to respect and care for their bodies as gifts from God. Thus, the physical education requirements, the intramural, and the interscholastic athletic programs are an integral part of the total curriculum. In response to the Gospel message, all members of the Jesuit High School family, that is, parents, faculty, administrators, staff, and students, share the mission of nurturing in each other the social skills and cultural awareness necessary for the Christian community. This is accomplished through the school s various activities and events, especially those who stress community outreach and personal interaction. In this way, all are encouraged to address social needs and injustices in the world around us. Therefore, all the young men who enroll in Jesuit High School are encouraged to use their spiritual gifts, intellectual talents, artistic qualities, and physical abilities to help those they encounter. Ultimately, the students are to be "change agents," "men for others." The Jesuit High School Diversity program works to foster a community of respect, dignity, and inclusion for students of all backgrounds. Our students' goal is to gain an appreciation and openness for diversity not only locally but on a national and international scale as well. JHS promotes respect for all and strives for solidarity within the entire school community. JHS is open to all qualified students from all groups and aims to deepen the educational experience as students of all backgrounds learn to interact effectively. A large part of Ignatian Spirituality invites us to find God in every circumstance of life, and we challenge each student to view the world with "eyes of faith." Through education and awareness, JHS provides students the opportunity to honor and understand the diverse world in which we live and work to cultivate empathetic, influential leaders and agents of change for the greater glory of God.

  10. Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas (Jesuit Dallas) was founded in 1942 as a private Catholic institution for young men under the Society of Jesus's direction. Located on a 27-acre campus in North Dallas, the School provides a rigorous student-centered Jesuit education to approximately 1,100 students in grades 9-12 with a 9:1 student-teacher ratio. The faculty totals over 125 professionals consisting of Jesuit priests and laymen and women. Currently, 59% of the staff holds an advanced degree. During the 2016-17 academic year, Jesuit Dallas granted more than $1.9 million in financial assistance to 23% of the student body. Jesuit Dallas students' average SAT scores exceed the national average by more than 200 points. Students annually earn local and national recognition from various prestigious and competitive programs, including National Merit Scholar Finalists, National Merit Hispanic Scholars, and AP Scholars. Jesuit is proud that 100% of Jesuit Dallas graduates are accepted by at least one college or university. In addition to a full academic curriculum, Jesuit's faculty and renowned counseling department guide students' social, spiritual, academic, and personal growth through various faith formation, athletic and extracurricular activities. More than three out of every four students participate in at least one of the 54 varsities, junior varsity, and freshman teams in 19 sports. When all extracurricular activities are included, the participation rate approaches 100%. Community service is one of Jesuit Dallas' most distinguishing hallmarks. Students participate in the most extensive, most comprehensive high school community service program in Texas and one of the largest nationwide. Jesuit students contribute nearly 100,000 hours of service each year to over 100 agencies in the Dallas area and worldwide. The School's focus on the formation of the whole person results in men who exemplify the ideal described in The Profile of the Graduate. The more than 10,000 graduates — Men for Others — serve as leaders in communities throughout the globe. As described by Jesuit president Mike Earsing, "Our students are not just called to be the best in the world they are called to be the best for the world." Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas does not tolerate sexual abuse, sexual activity, hazing, or bullying, whether perpetrated by adults or students. The School takes its role of partnering with parents very seriously and is vitally concerned about the safety and well-being of our students and the protection of the faculty, staff, and guests who participate in the many activities that we sponsor. Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas offers young men an excellent Catholic education in the classical Jesuit tradition to form a community of men with high moral principles and service to others. The mission of Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas draws its inspiration and vision from St. Ignatius Loyola. It seeks in all it does to work ad majorem Dei gloriam, to the greater glory of God. In offering a college preparatory education, Jesuit emphasizes academic excellence and intellectual challenge. The interaction of students and faculty introduces each student to the various fields of human knowledge, invites him to a mastery of particular skills, teaches him how to learn for himself, and encourages him to think critically. Thus, the studies' program looks to develop in its students "perfect eloquence," having something worthwhile to say and being able to express it effectively and persuasively. Jesuit recognizes the importance of educating the whole person, and thus every aspect of the School seeks the fullest possible development of every dimension of its students. Such a liberal education frees the student to develop fully the potential human God has given him. Jesuit's education seeks to inspire joy in learning and a thirst for more incredible and more in-depth knowledge. Jesuit exists as part of the apostolic mission of the Roman Catholic Church. It thus takes as its cornerstone an attitude of thinking with the Church, remaining faithful to its teachings and presenting clearly and honestly its fundamental beliefs. As a Catholic institution, Jesuit draws spiritual strength from its liturgical life in celebrating the sacraments, especially Reconciliation and the Eucharist. Jesuit likewise incorporates communal prayer as an integral part of the School's regular order and offers its students opportunities to develop and deepen their personal prayer lives. Jesuit's commitment to drawing students from all ethnic backgrounds flows from its participation in the Church's mission to make disciples of all nations. Its respect for diversity rests on understanding the common origin and goal of all human beings in God. Moreover, Jesuit's Catholic identity, drawing on the Church's defined teachings on religious liberty, likewise ensures proper respect for all conscience and convictions. Jesuit stands committed to all students' spiritual development and thus — in ways proper to a school — makes concrete experiences of church life available to all. Since a faith that does justice is an essential element of a Jesuit institution, the School requires its students a systematic service program reflecting on the broader issues and principles behind the individual acts of service. This service program stands as an integral part of the more extensive formation of character and spirituality. Jesuit calls on its students to see that justice and service works are ultimately done in imitation of Christ. In short, Jesuit strives to form its students into "men for others." View full school

  12. We are founded on the 470-year-old Jesuit educational goal of forming men for others for the Greater Glory of God. Our graduates are leaders in their communities. They strive to be competent, religious, loving, open to growth, and committed to justice. When you meet our graduates, you will find that they are leaders: in the business world, in the arts, in religious life, in politics, in the sciences and technology, in sports, and especially in the community. Our school and Jesuit education aim to prepare our young men to be leaders-- to engage the world, not just to observe it. As you encounter our students and graduates, you see that they are well rounded and confident as they strive for the Magis, excellence in all things. This is part of the Jesuit goal of "Cura personals," the formation of the whole person: mind, spirit, and body. A U of D Jesuit graduate has learned to feel compassion for the victims of injustice and has a sense of urgency to implement societal changes that will help such victims protect their rights and human dignity. He is involved in public service and feels an obligation as a Christian to participate in the building of a humane, civic, and ecclesial community in a way that respects the pluralism of that community. We offer this kind of education because we want our students to do well and make a difference in their world. When the first Jesuit schools were founded 470 years ago, their goal was to do God's work and work with others for the good of all in the Kingdom of God's service. Jesuit education helps students realize that talents are gifts to be developed, not for self-satisfaction or self-gain, but rather, with God's help, for the good of the entire human family. "Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam," for the greater glory of God. University of Detroit Jesuit High School and Academy is committed to providing the highest quality of Jesuit college preparatory education to young men in southeast Michigan.

Since 1877, U of D Jesuit has earned a reputation for academic excellence and a commitment to faith and service. In part, this reputation encourages students from the entire Metro Detroit area to attend 'The High.' Attracting students from St. Clair Shores and Grosse Pointe to the East, Dearborn and Grosse Ile to the South, Plymouth and Northville to the West, Rochester Hills and Bloomfield Hills to the North, the city of Detroit, and all points in between, is only one aspect that makes U of D Jesuit unique.

  13. Strake Jesuit is a Catholic, four-year college preparatory school for young men grades 9-12. The school was founded in 1960 by the New Orleans Province of the Society of Jesus, a religious order of priests and brothers, also known as the Jesuits. The Jesuits bring over four and half centuries of tradition and commitment to academic excellence. Located in southwest Houston, the school physically resembles a small college with its various buildings spread around its fifty-two-acre campus. This provides the school community with numerous outdoor grassy spaces and shaded areas for gathering and personal enjoyment. The current student population numbers just over 1,100. Faculty, staff, and administration total over 110 yielding a student-to-teacher ratio of 10:1. Also, fifty-seven percent of the faculty have advanced degrees in their areas. Ninety-one percent of the student body participates in extracurricular activities directed by numerous schools school faculty members. The student body–with forty-five percent of minorities–and the staff reflect Houston's diverse character. To ease the tuition burden for their families, approximately 15% of the student population receives assistance from a financial aid budget of $1.8 million. The first day a student steps foot on campus, he begins actively working with his teachers, coaches, and counselors to practice the ideals of Jesuit education – to become a Man for Others. We often talk about being a Man for Others at Strake Jesuit because it is part of Jesuit education's rich spiritual and intellectual tradition. For nearly 500 years, Jesuits have been teaching, coaching, and forming students to be loving, religious, committed to doing justice, intellectually competent, physically fit, and open to growth. And in Houston, we have been faithfully dedicated to that mission at Strake Jesuit since 1960. Our students commit to intellectual growth, and they learn to lead by being engaged in our school community and beyond. They also experience the joy and responsibility of serving others by completing a minimum of 155 service hours during their time at Strake Jesuit. Whether in the classroom or together on retreat at our Retreat and Leadership Center, competing on one of our athletic teams, our outstanding debate team, or in our accomplished music programs, our students are cultivating values and learning skills that we believe will prepare them not only for college but for life. The Strake Jesuit graduate is approaching the threshold of young adulthood. Leaving the childhood behind has involved anxiety and embarrassment and taking fearful first steps into sexual identity, independence, first love, or first job. It has also involved physical, emotional, and mental development that brought out strengths, abilities, and characteristics adults and peers began to appreciate. During the four years before graduation, he began to realize he could do some things well, sometimes very well, like playing basketball, acting, writing, doing math, fixing or driving cars, making music, or making money. There have also been failures and disappointments. Even these, however, have helped the student to move toward maturity. Fluctuating between highs and lows of fear and confidence, love and loneliness, confusion, and success, the Strake Jesuit student at graduation has negotiated during these years many of the difficulties of adolescence. On the other hand, the graduate has not reached the maturity of the college senior. During his senior year of high school, he is especially beginning to awaken to complexity to discover many puzzling things about the adult world. He does not understand why adults break their promises, how the economy "works," or why there are wars, or what power is and how it ought to be used. Yet he is old enough to begin framing the questions. And so, as some of the inner turmoil of the past few years begins to settle, he looks out on the adult world with a sense of wonder, anxious to enter that world, yet still unable to make sense of it. He is more and more confident among his peers. He can more easily read the clues of the youth culture of which he is a part. Furthermore, he is independent enough to choose his response. As for the adult world, he is still a "threshold person," cautiously entering adulthood.

The current era of secondary education is an exciting one, with the infusion of technology and increasing emphasis on student engagement in the learning process. Jesuit has responded in a dynamic way to the changing needs of 21st-century education, with the successful introduction of the 1:1 iPad Program in 2014 as a prime example, as well as the remarkable progress of the Advanced Placement (AP) program. From 2014-18, five years, Jesuit achieved an annual pass rate of between 76% and 84% on all AP tests taken, while increasing its AP opportunities every year.

More than 150 students are enrolled in Jesuit's Engineering program in 2018-19. While Jesuit continues its pursuit of Academic Excellence, at the same time it remains true to its heritage of forming men of faith and "Men for Others."
  16. Jesuit High School is a non-profit, Catholic, college-preparatory school for boys in grades 8-12 that serves students of all religious faiths. It is located in Mid-City New Orleans on Carrollton Avenue between Palmyra and Banks Streets. Jesuit's curriculum is structured to develop disciplined habits, stimulate critical thinking, and develop the skills necessary to express that thinking. The school strives to instill five characteristics in its students. The goal is to educate our young men to be open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice. The Jesuit approach to education is based on nearly five hundred years of excellence, originated by St. Ignatius Loyola, who founded the Society of Jesus ("the Jesuits") in 1540. It begins with a deep respect for students and their potential, a principle the Jesuits call cura personalis. The Jesuit faculty challenges students to strive for personal excellence in all aspects of life — intellectual, emotional, moral, and physical. That principle, called Magis, accounts for intellectual exchange's rigor and the varied challenges Blue Jays experience at Jesuit and in the world beyond. The present Jesuit High School of New Orleans was established in 1847 as one department of the College of the Immaculate Conception by the Fathers of the Society of Jesus. The College was located on Baronne and Commons Streets. In 1911 the collegiate departments were transferred to the site of the present Loyola University of New Orleans. The high school department remained in the buildings on Baronne Street for another 15 years. In 1926, the school moved to its present location on Carrollton Avenue between Banks and Palmyra Streets due to increasing enrollment. The mission of Jesuit High School as a Catholic college preparatory school is to develop in its students the competence, conscience, and compassion that will enable them to be men of faith and men for others. We take our mission quite seriously at Jesuit. This statement drives all that we do — day in and day out. Every trade has its facts and figures, and every worker needs a command of those facts and figures. Students leave Jesuit with much more than facts and figures. They leave knowing that information powerful, and how they use that information is just as powerful. Each day young people face decisions about using what they know and deciding what to do the right thing. Our goal is to produce young men with a sense of right and wrong, young men who know facts but also know that facts are only manifestations of God's creation and, as such, are to be valued deeply and used only for the greater glory of God. We are not alone. And we certainly are not a gated community. Each student at Jesuit is one of 1,385 young men from different backgrounds — socially, economically, and culturally. We are a microcosm of our broader community. And we have an opportunity to explore our common bond of humanity. What do I owe my neighbor simply because we are both human beings, both creatures of God? How we interact, how we play, how we compete, how we study, how we worship all reflect one profound truth: how we love each other. And so daily at Jesuit, we practice the basic tenet of our faith: that we love one another as our God loves us. Jesuit is committed to the belief that we are created to know, love, and serve God that each person, though sinful, is personally known and loved by God and that this love invites a response to God's love, a gift of oneself. The fundamental purpose of our school is to form "men for others" — men of faith who are motivated by genuine Gospel charity, new men transformed by the message of Christ, who are open to their own time and to the future leaders who have acquired a way of life that is a proclamation of the love of Christ, of faith, and justice. College can be challenging. One reason young men choose to spend the most critical years of their lives at Jesuit is to prepare themselves for this next level. From what is taught to how it is taught, everything at Jesuit is geared to preparing each person for a successful college experience and a successful life in the 21st century. Jesuit is proud to be part of a 460-year Catholic and Ignatian tradition of educating young men and women to be in service for and with others. Jesuit's curriculum and courses are structured to develop disciplined habits, stimulate critical thinking, and develop the skills necessary to express that thinking. The school strives to instill five characteristics in its students. The goal is to educate our young men to be open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice. As described in the "Profile of the Jesuit Graduate at Graduation," these principles guide our curriculum development and teaching.
  17. Nearly 475 years ago, St. Ignatius of Loyola founded the Society of Jesus, a community of Jesuit priests. He dedicated his life and the Jesuits' work to Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam, "For the Greater Glory of God." This dedication and vision of St. Ignatius continues to live on today in the students and community at Jesuit High School. Firmly rooted in Jesuit ideals and Catholic educational tradition, Jesuit provides a dynamic environment for academic, spiritual, and social growth. For nearly 50 years, Jesuit High School has challenged students with a rigorous academic program in the classical, Jesuit tradition. Today, that tradition continues through a comprehensive study of the liberal arts and a strong commitment to a Jesuit mission that prepares students for college and beyond. A Jesuit education offers more than an excellent college preparatory curriculum. Students attend from throughout the Sacramento Metropolitan area and are challenged to realize their full potential as lifelong learners and leaders in service to others. By graduation, these young men are academically competent, open to growth, loving, and aware of God in their lives and the world. When a young man enters Jesuit High School, he becomes part of a global community of men and women proud to have attended a Jesuit high school or university. Whether in Sacramento or cities throughout the United States and abroad, graduates feel a connection with others who have graduated from a Jesuit school. This network of Jesuit-school graduates welcomes Jesuit High School alumni into a community that can open doors in all walks of life. Jesuit High School of Sacramento is a Roman Catholic college preparatory dedicated to forming competent young men into conscientious leaders in compassionate service to others for the greater glory of God. "The educational philosophy of Jesuit High School is Catholic and, therefore, it is based on a faith response to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is Jesuit and, therefore, it is formed by Ignatius of Loyola's vision of Christ and the world. The school's purpose is to lovingly serve the young men of the wider Sacramento area, from every ethnic and socio-economic background and a broad spectrum of academic achievement. In support of parents as primary educators, our role is to help our students realize the fullness of their spiritual, intellectual, artistic, physical, and social potential. The spiritual dimension of the student's development is fostered through their incorporation into a community where Catholic beliefs, morals, and values, inspired by faith in the Gospel and a belief in the full brotherhood/sisterhood of the human family, are taught, professed, and experienced, and where personal action is proposed as a response. The intellectual dimension is developed through a curriculum oriented towards college-bound students and an environment that fosters academic excellence, nurturing reflective analysis, and creative expression. The students are encouraged to develop their artistic and affective nature through exposure to and participation in the Fine Arts. Thus they come to an appreciation of the creative spirit which is within and around them. The students should learn to respect and care for their bodies as gifts from God. Thus, the physical education requirements, the intramural, and the interscholastic athletic programs are an integral part of the total curriculum. In response to the Gospel message, all members of the Jesuit High School family, that is, parents, faculty, administrators, staff, and students, share the mission of nurturing in each other the social skills and cultural awareness necessary for the Christian community. This is accomplished through the school s various activities and events, especially those who stress community outreach and personal interaction. In this way, all are encouraged to address social needs and injustices in the world around us. Therefore, all the young men who enroll in Jesuit High School are encouraged to use their spiritual gifts, intellectual talents, artistic qualities, and physical abilities to help those they encounter. Ultimately, the students are to be "change agents," "men for others." The Jesuit High School Diversity program works to foster a community of respect, dignity, and inclusion for students of all backgrounds. Our students' goal is to gain an appreciation and openness for diversity not only locally but on a national and international scale as well. JHS promotes respect for all and strives for solidarity within the entire school community. JHS is open to all qualified students from all groups and aims to deepen the educational experience as students of all backgrounds learn to interact effectively. A large part of Ignatian Spirituality invites us to find God in every circumstance of life, and we challenge each student to view the world with "eyes of faith." Through education and awareness, JHS provides students the opportunity to honor and understand the diverse world in which we live and work to cultivate empathetic, influential leaders and agents of change for the greater glory of God.
  18. Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas (Jesuit Dallas) was founded in 1942 as a private Catholic institution for young men under the Society of Jesus's direction. Located on a 27-acre campus in North Dallas, the School provides a rigorous student-centered Jesuit education to approximately 1,100 students in grades 9-12 with a 9:1 student-teacher ratio. The faculty totals over 125 professionals consisting of Jesuit priests and laymen and women. Currently, 59% of the staff holds an advanced degree. During the 2016-17 academic year, Jesuit Dallas granted more than $1.9 million in financial assistance to 23% of the student body. Jesuit Dallas students' average SAT scores exceed the national average by more than 200 points. Students annually earn local and national recognition from various prestigious and competitive programs, including National Merit Scholar Finalists, National Merit Hispanic Scholars, and AP Scholars. Jesuit is proud that 100% of Jesuit Dallas graduates are accepted by at least one college or university. In addition to a full academic curriculum, Jesuit's faculty and renowned counseling department guide students' social, spiritual, academic, and personal growth through various faith formation, athletic and extracurricular activities. More than three out of every four students participate in at least one of the 54 varsities, junior varsity, and freshman teams in 19 sports. When all extracurricular activities are included, the participation rate approaches 100%. Community service is one of Jesuit Dallas' most distinguishing hallmarks. Students participate in the most extensive, most comprehensive high school community service program in Texas and one of the largest nationwide. Jesuit students contribute nearly 100,000 hours of service each year to over 100 agencies in the Dallas area and worldwide. The School's focus on the formation of the whole person results in men who exemplify the ideal described in The Profile of the Graduate. The more than 10,000 graduates — Men for Others — serve as leaders in communities throughout the globe. As described by Jesuit president Mike Earsing, "Our students are not just called to be the best in the world they are called to be the best for the world." Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas does not tolerate sexual abuse, sexual activity, hazing, or bullying, whether perpetrated by adults or students. The School takes its role of partnering with parents very seriously and is vitally concerned about the safety and well-being of our students and the protection of the faculty, staff, and guests who participate in the many activities that we sponsor. Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas offers young men an excellent Catholic education in the classical Jesuit tradition to form a community of men with high moral principles and service to others. The mission of Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas draws its inspiration and vision from St. Ignatius Loyola. It seeks in all it does to work ad majorem Dei gloriam, to the greater glory of God. In offering a college preparatory education, Jesuit emphasizes academic excellence and intellectual challenge. The interaction of students and faculty introduces each student to the various fields of human knowledge, invites him to a mastery of particular skills, teaches him how to learn for himself, and encourages him to think critically. Thus, the studies' program looks to develop in its students "perfect eloquence," having something worthwhile to say and being able to express it effectively and persuasively. Jesuit recognizes the importance of educating the whole person, and thus every aspect of the School seeks the fullest possible development of every dimension of its students. Such a liberal education frees the student to develop fully the potential human God has given him. Jesuit's education seeks to inspire joy in learning and a thirst for more incredible and more in-depth knowledge. Jesuit exists as part of the apostolic mission of the Roman Catholic Church. It thus takes as its cornerstone an attitude of thinking with the Church, remaining faithful to its teachings and presenting clearly and honestly its fundamental beliefs. As a Catholic institution, Jesuit draws spiritual strength from its liturgical life in celebrating the sacraments, especially Reconciliation and the Eucharist. Jesuit likewise incorporates communal prayer as an integral part of the School's regular order and offers its students opportunities to develop and deepen their personal prayer lives. Jesuit's commitment to drawing students from all ethnic backgrounds flows from its participation in the Church's mission to make disciples of all nations. Its respect for diversity rests on understanding the common origin and goal of all human beings in God. Moreover, Jesuit's Catholic identity, drawing on the Church's defined teachings on religious liberty, likewise ensures proper respect for all conscience and convictions. Jesuit stands committed to all students' spiritual development and thus — in ways proper to a school — makes concrete experiences of church life available to all. Since a faith that does justice is an essential element of a Jesuit institution, the School requires its students a systematic service program reflecting on the broader issues and principles behind the individual acts of service. This service program stands as an integral part of the more extensive formation of character and spirituality. Jesuit calls on its students to see that justice and service works are ultimately done in imitation of Christ. In short, Jesuit strives to form its students into "men for others."

As we move forward with best educational practices to inspire young women and men to understand and meet the new challenges of the 21st century, we focus on the interconnected nature of our journey and the need to pay attention to the myriad ways that God encourages us to be attentive and loving towards those we are called to serve.
