St. John’s Jesuit Open House Nov. 15, Noon to 3 p.m., Grades 6-12

Special to the Truth

Over 10,000 St. John’s Jesuit High School (SJJ) graduates have experienced opportunities that have changed their lives and defined who they are.  SJJ graduates know that when you have helped someone and touched his life it makes a world of difference within you.  Although many graduates go on to successful careers because of the premier academic education.  Jesuit education has always been more about internal formation based on the teachings of St. Ignatius of Loyola, about the SJJ brotherhood and about becoming a man for others.

See for yourself the opportunities that await young men in grades 6-12 at the SJJ Open House on November 15 from noon to 3 p.m. Conveniently located at 5901 Airport Highway, families are invited to tour with student guides, meet the faculty and staff, experience the fine arts, connect with coaches, learn about Christian Service opportunities, and explore all the leadership programs available for young men. Programs such as:

It’s been 50 years since SJJ opened its doors to all boys in 1965 with the gym, auditorium and chapel still under construction.  Today, the campus has 54 acres and continues its 50-year mission to educate young men in grades six-12.  The academic facilities feature a high school for grades 9-12 with a wing for grades six to eight.  The campus includes the dome gym, auxiliary gym, The Lyden Fitness Center, Lyden Field - a state-of-the-art sports stadium, soccer/lacrosse field, a baseball complex, the McQuade Theatre, Sawicki Family Music Center, the Carty Fox Commons, a food court, the technology wing, the Iott Center that houses the A+ Learning Center and a chapel that seats the entire student body. Families can see it all on Nov. 15 from noon to 3 p.m.

 

For almost 475 years Jesuit education has been producing tomorrow’s leaders in a Christ-centered atmosphere.  St. John’s Jesuit is part of a network of 63 high schools and 28 colleges in the U.S. and hundreds of institutions worldwide that all share the same ideals and programs. Founding documents based on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, orient and guide all Jesuit institutions and its employees to effectively carry on the educational mission and services of the Society of Jesus (Jesuit).
