Academics

Jesuit education is animated by the principle that every academic discipline and intellectual pursuit are connected by a thread that points to God’s glory. To this end, Jesuit’s classically grounded academic program features an uncommon commitment to rigor, high expectations, and an emphasis on personal responsibility.

While preparation for college is an outcome of Jesuit’s academic program, formation at Jesuit goes beyond the intellectual, equipping students with the freedom of self mastery that will enable them to become men for others.

Each of Jesuit’s 117 courses is designed with this end in mind, and each of Jesuit’s 164 faculty and staff members are tirelessly dedicated to it.

The Profile of the Jesuit Graduate at the Time of Graduation names five descriptors that should characterize each Blue Jay by the end of his time at Carrollton & Banks: open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice.
