Every freshman chooses an Arts elective

Select your passion

Whether it’s on stage in our drama productions, in the community as a part of the 12 choral and instrumental ensembles, or in our studio art, film and photography classes, the arts offerings at Jesuit allow our students to develop their God-given talents with their confidence and means of self-expression to be successful in life beyond high school. More than 70% of our students choose to continue pursuing their artistic ambitions, inside and outside of the classroom, beyond the one-year requirement.

When and how do you select your Arts elective?

During the enrollment process, our incoming freshman can rank their preferred electives. If enrollment is completed by the deadline, they’ll get a preliminary schedule during the Welcome Event.

See the Course Catalog for a full description of all the classes.

Jesuit Prep
Get oriented to campus, meet your classmates, brush up on subjects, and get a jump start over summer to being ready for high school.

June 10 – June 28: 8:00 am-12:45 pm 

Jesuit Prep is here for our Class of 2028!

Our hope is to acclimate the incoming freshman to Jesuit academics and culture and get them comfortable on campus. In this class (formerly known as the Marauder Seminar), students will be introduced to academic methods, technology, and content that will help prepare them for their journey at Jesuit High School. They will begin their summer reading assignment, meet new friends and start the new year poised for success.
