St. Ignatius Loyola Academy is an independent, tuition-free, Jesuit middle school for boys from underserved communities.  The children we serve lack access to high-quality schools and support programs that can change the trajectory of their lives.  Through our innovative educational program, the Academy offers a path of hope and resolve to young men in Baltimore City.  The educational experiences and opportunities the Academy provides are designed specifically to address the needs of urban boys by developing the intellectual, physical, and social qualities of each student leading to their success in high school, college, and adult lives.  Our results speak to that future.  Over the school’s 25-year history, 98% of graduates have received a high school diploma.  Eighty-eight percent of graduates go on to immediately enroll in college or other post-secondary education surpassing the Maryland and national rates. The Academy is a private institution with a very public purpose. 

 

The Academy is an independent Catholic Jesuit school accredited by the Association of Independent Maryland and DC Schools (AIMS) and sponsored by the Maryland Province of Jesuits.  Grounded in that educational tradition, the Academy’s faculty and staff educate deserving young men to be intellectually competent, open to growth, loving, religious, and committed to doing justice.  Learn about our excellent educational program and the exceptional results we achieve at www.saintignatius.org.
