Catholic education in the United States remains predominantly white demographically. While efforts have been made to address this issue from a student standpoint, more attention is required on racially diversifying the faculty and staff. In order to achieve this, voices of color and their stories must be included in the dialogue.

  • President – Position Description
    www.loyolahsdetroit.org 8.23.18 PRESIDENT – POSITION DESCRIPTION A Catholic school in the Jesuit tradition, Loyola was founded as a concerned response to the pressing need for urban male education in Detroit and its nearby communities and is a joint venture between the Archdiocese of Detroit and the Jesuits of the USA Midwest Province. With the strong involvement of parents and staff at every step of the way, it aims to produce graduates who are truly “men for others” and who demonstrate the level of academic, physical, social and spiritual growth envisioned in the school's mission. As Loyola celebrates its 25th year, the school continues to address challenges and opportunities that will mark the next 25 years and remains committed to its original mission to help students find success in high school and beyond. Our students often enter one or more grade-levels behind in reading or math but are challenged to rise above their present trajectories and show ongoing improvement. With an enrollment over 140 students each year, the Loyola model works by creating a strong community of students, parents and staff to support the young men at school and at home. We offer a work-study program to our junior and senior students where they work in a professional setting one day per week and five days per month during the school year. All members of recent graduating classes have been accepted into at least one college or university, and they have found ongoing success in the classroom and the workplace. They testify to the fact that Loyola is a school that works, forming the young men of today into better men for the future of our city and our world.

The purpose of this phenomenological investigation was to understand Jesuit lay secondary school teacher discernment of the Ignatian charism and whether lay teachers make the Ignatian charism part of their work. There was no research about the experiences with and recognition of the Ignatian charism by lay secondary teachers. This literature review examined charisms of four Roman Catholic religious orders currently advanced by lay teachers. Explanations of each charism clarified complexity and related them to authentic, transformational, and servant leadership types. There were university studies about lay college professors’ manifestation of the Ignatian charism into their work. The aim of this study created an evidence-based set of data to guide Jesuit secondary school administrators in their planning of lay teacher induction and mentor programs in Jesuit schools.

  • JESUIT SECONDARY EDUCATION ASSOCIATION FOUNDATIONS Table of Contents
    JESUIT SECONDARY EDUCATION ASSOCIATION FOUNDATIONS Table of Contents FOREWORD REV. JOSEPH F. O’CONNELL, S.J. Father O’Connell, current president of the Jesuit Secondary Education Association, offers thoughts situating this new edition of Foundations in the context of the Jesuit Educational mission in 2005. PREFACE This preface, by Carl E. Meirose, former head of the Jesuit Secondary Education Association, introduced the 1994 edition of Foundations when it was originally issued as a “compilation” of documents “delineating the principles” and elucidating the “dynamic renewal process” that had taken place in Jesuit secondary education in the preceding quarter century. SECTION 1 The Preamble (1970) The foundational document for the establishment of JSEA, it draws on major themes from the Spiritual Exercises to articulate an Ignatian vision for Jesuit schools. SECTION 2 The Jesuit High School of the Future (1972) THE COMMISSION ON RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT The results of a workshop by the former Commission on Research and Development (CORD), this document sets forth certain assumptions about the world, the Church, education and Jesuit schools in order to articulate a contemporary statement of educational values and directions for the Jesuit high school of the future. SECTION 3 Apostolic Consciousness: Key to Jesuit Education (1973) ROBERT J. STARRATT, PH.D. Intended to evoke reflection and conversation among teachers in Jesuit schools, this paper was a follow up to The Preamble and proposes apostolic consciousness as the unifying experience for school faculties composed of lay and Jesuit colleagues. SECTION 4 Men for Others (1974) PEDRO ARRUPE, S.J. Considered radical at the time, the address by then Superior General of the Society of Jesus to the 10th International Congress of Jesuit Alumni of Europe in Valencia, Spain, called for a re-education for social justice and social action in Jesuit schools.

  • Associate PASE USA Northeast Province of the Society of Jesus
    Associate PASE USA Northeast Province of the Society of Jesus The USA Northeast Province of the Society of Jesus affirms the value of the apostolate of secondary and pre-secondary education as a foundational ministry of the Jesuit charism. Our Jesuit schools receive their primary cura apostolica and cura personalis from the Province office of secondary and pre-secondary education. The PASE office is responsible for assessing the Jesuit identity and mission of each school and for providing support and resources for schools to achieve and continue that identity and mission. The Associate PASE assists the Provincial Assistant for Secondary and Pre-Secondary Education (PASE) by providing programming and resources for the schools of the Province in support of the mission of Jesuit education. Together they work with faculties, administrations, and boards in understanding the Jesuit and Catholic mission and identity of the schools, with their own formation, and in establishing and maintaining Jesuit identity programs. They are also responsible for collaborating with the Jesuit Schools Network and other Provinces to develop and coordinate programs in support of the schools’ shared Jesuit mission. The PASE offices of the Northeast and Maryland Provinces presently collaborate on regional programming in anticipation of the formation of the USA East Province by 2020. The Associate PASE position is a full-time position to begin on August 1, 2016. The Associate PASE reports to the Provincial Assistant for Secondary and Pre-Secondary Education. Primary
