A Catholic, College-Preparatory School in the Jesuit Tradition
Our mission to educate young women and men is rooted in over four centuries of a Jesuit educational tradition defined by faith, community, and a commitment to serve the "Greater Glory of God."
Get to Know Jesuit
Jesuit is well known for its strong community. We encourage all interested 8th graders to register for a Shadow Day using their admissions account. Spend a day on campus and get to know Jesuit from the inside!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 in the educational philosophy of Jesuit founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola, and takes a holistic view of adolescent education, which includes 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, an articulate wisdom, enthusiasm, and a sense of community. In so doing, we hope to graduate leaders who are committed to serve 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."
The operation of Jesuit High School is overseen by a Board of Trustees. The board ensures and provides the spiritual tone and direction of the school, consistent with the purposes and traditions of Roman Catholic and Jesuit education. The board also monitors Jesuit High School's business affairs.
Jesuit High School is fully accreditated by AdvancEd.

Today the sun rises on the buildings and fields
On the school I love and its Jesuit shield.
We will honor its past - its future we hold,
Age Quod Agis for our green and gold.
With the gift of Ignatius and the profile for life
Excellence in the classroom, on the field we will strive
We uphold the tradition with each day anew,
With the Cross in our sight guiding all that we do.
We uphold the tradition with each day anew
Men and Women for Others – Jesuit High School
Age Quod Agis - "Do Well Whatever You Do"
Jesuit High School is committed to maintaining a safe-school environment for all of our students. We regularly take proactive steps to protect our students in order to guard their safety and well-being. These include mandatory background checks of employees and the enactment of a Youth Protection Policy. All faculty, staff, coaches and priests who work at Jesuit complete a program which trains us to recognize and prevent abuse of children. Volunteers and part-time staff who have any contact with students are required to complete this training as well.
Jesuit High School does not tolerate discrimination, harassment, abuse, or power-based personal violence. As mandatory reporters, any school employee who knows or suspects that a student has been subjected to abuse is required to inform appropriate authorities.
Each school year, we educate students regarding the reporting of power-based personal violence and harm, encouraging them that if they "see something, say something." We offer programs such as Green Dot to teach students to combat power-based personal violence, including sexual assault, dating violence, and bullying.
Each student is assigned to a trained JHS counselor, to whom they can confidentially report abuse or any other concern. We publicize a state hotline which students can call to report abuse, bullying, or other types of harm in a confidential, anonymous fashion.
At Jesuit High School, we continually seek to implement effective, research-based programs to protect our students, and we insist that students and staff treat one another not only with respect, but as holy beings made in God's image.
Jesuit High School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to all schools. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin or disability which can be reasonably accommodated in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, financial aid programs and athletic and other school administered programs.
