“I remember…after class, me and my good friends always coming to the same table and just talk…about life…or football, or what’s going on. It was a simple moment, but I remember it vividly because it was a great connection, and it represented brotherhood.”

Weekly Update Nov 6, 2025

Attendance is a crucial part of the learning experience for all students. Throughout the first quarter of this school year, we have experienced a high volume of students arriving at school tardy to begin the day. In addition to the impact that being late has on the tardy student, a high volume of students trickling into classes has a disruptive impact on the classroom environment for the teachers and other students. We ask for your assistance in making a conscious effort to help students arrive on campus by 8:00am. We recognize that traffic patterns and road construction make this a challenge; however, we want all students to have the resources and support at school to continue to be successful academically.

Tips

Plan to arrive by 8:00am and monitor any impacts to your commute from traffic and/or weather.
Help with traffic flow. Utilize the proper pick-up and drop off locations dedicated to each grade level.
Stay informed. Configure attendance notifications from PowerSchool to send you an email if your son misses a class. If you have any questions regarding the recordkeeping of your son’s attendance, please contact Mary Harrison, Administrative Assistant to the Dean of Students via email at mary.harrison@jesuithighschool.org.
Report your attendance. Use PowerSchool to request an early dismissal or report absence, late arrival.

Upcoming holidays include

November 11: Veterans Day (Offices Closed)
November 24-28: Thanksgiving Holiday (Offices Closed 11/26-11/28)
December 22-January 5: Christmas Break (Offices Closed 12/24-12/26, 1/1)

A quick reminder that Jesuit takes the entire week off for Thanksgiving. We made this change many years ago due to the consistently high absence rates in schools that hold classes on the Monday and Tuesday of this week. We want to stress the importance of all students being in attendance the week before this break and the Monday following. It is important to avoid extending breaks, as our teachers will be collecting work, presenting new material, and giving assessments until the last period on Friday before we go on vacation. The return from this break is also when more formal preparation for finals begins, so we want to ensure students are set up for the greatest chance of success going into Final Exams.

Continuing Jesuit’s Mission — Strengthening Our Future
A Message from the Board of Trustees Chair Kelly Brothers ’82

Dear Marauder Family,

For more than 60 years, Jesuit High School Sacramento has remained true to its mission: forming young people of conscience, competence, and compassion. As we look to the future, we do so with the same purpose and faith, preparing to transition to a Co-Divisional model beginning in the 2027–28 school year.

This approach will preserve single-sex formation while expanding shared opportunities, ensuring Jesuit continues to thrive for generations to come.

Thank you to all in our community who attended our first informational and formational sessions with school leadership this week. We were grateful to engage in meaningful conversation with more than 150 families from across all grade levels. Your questions, insights, and presence are helping shape this important transition.

We have more sessions planned! Visit the /Next section of our website (located in the navigation bar next to Press Room) to find upcoming events and resources related to the co-divisional transition. The section will continue to grow as we share updates, answer questions, and provide tools to support our community throughout the process.

Jesuit High School Sacramento Announces Historic Transition to Co-Divisional Education Model

Jesuit High School Sacramento, a cornerstone of Catholic education in the region for over six decades, proudly announces a bold and mission-driven evolution: beginning in Fall 2027, Jesuit Sacramento will welcome its first cohort of young women, becoming the only co-divisional high school in California.

This transformative decision, overwhelmingly approved by the Jesuit High School of Sacramento Board of Trustees, reflects a deep commitment to the school’s founding mission and a visionary response to the changing educational landscape. The new co-divisional model will feature two distinct academic divisions—a Boys Division and a Girls Division—preserving the benefits of single-sex education while offering vibrant, integrated co-curricular experiences.

A message from our School President

Dear Jesuit Families,

It has been a wonderful few weeks seeing our campus come alive again — filled with the energy, joy, and spirit of our students. Whether at our Parents Dinners, Back-to-School Night, or cheering together at Friday night football, I’ve been deeply moved by the many ways we gather as a Jesuit family to celebrate one another and the incredible young men we serve.

Every conversation with you, every walk around campus, every interaction with a student, leaves me energized and profoundly grateful.

Lately, I’ve been mindful of the Ignatian way of proceeding: to discern, to collaborate, and to act with purpose and love, all for the greater glory of God. These values are reflected not only in our daily work on campus, but also in the leadership work of our Board of Trustees. With 23 dedicated members — including nine who are alumni, six current parents, nine alumni parents, and two Jesuits — our Board brings deep wisdom and a spirit of Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam (AMDG) to their generous service.

Together, we stay focused on mission richness, enrollment and revenue predictability, and long-term sustainability. This Board is about to meet for its annual retreat, a time for them to reflect on how we can best serve our students, families, and alumni — ensuring Jesuit remains the premier leader of the Catholic educational experience in our region long into the future.

For over 60 years, Jesuit has not just been a school with a mission — we are a mission with a school.

I invite you to join us in this mission throughout the year. Come to campus events, connect with me, our faculty, and our staff, and bring your friends! Jesuit is more than a place of learning — it is a home where lifelong memories are made and futures are shaped.

With gratitude and hope,

Chris Alling
President, Jesuit High School of Sacramento
