Loyola High School (Montreal)
Loyola High School is a private Catholic school for boys in grades 7–11 located in Montreal (Quebec, Canada). The School was established in 1896 by the Society of Jesus as part of Loyola College, at the request of the English Catholic community in Montreal. It is named after St. Ignatius of Loyola who founded the Jesuit Order in 1534.
In Loyola's Mission Statement, the School is described as providing a university-preparatory program consisting of a rigorous and comprehensive educational experience intertwined with spiritual and religious formation, and extra-curricular involvement to deserving students.
An important feature of the School is its practice that no student attending Loyola should be deprived of the opportunity to get the full "Loyola experience" because of an inability to pay. This has fostered a diverse student body which has contributed to the School's strong sense of community and public service.
