A LEARNING COMMUNITY

Jesuit education is distinguished by its bold dialogue with the world and its insistence on critical thought and imagination coming together in action for justice. Those formed in this tradition are called to leadership, which puts their gifts and talents at the service of the community to advance the common good. A Jesuit school is called to be a learning community in which students, teachers, parents and alumni are constantly learning and growing. To enhance excellence in Jesuit education through an ever-deepening emphasis on student and faculty learning, we will:

• enhance the learning-centered culture of Loyola;
• integrate more service and reflection experiences into student life;
• develop a model fine arts curriculum and coursework to benefit all students;
• create a distinctive, Jesuit, four-year leadership curriculum and integrate this curriculum into classroom, cocurricular and athletic activities;
• continue to integrate technology into the learning process;
• develop the nation’s most comprehensive Ignatian professional development program.
