Upper Midwest Jesuits | Chicago-Detroit Province

As the new academic year opens, we share the remarks of Chicago-Detroit Provincial Fr. Timothy P. Kesicki, SJ, speaking at the commencement of John Carroll University on May 22, 2011. Fr. Kesicki reflected upon his own Jesuit education, saying “Our society is ultimately built on what we share together”. It is in this spirit that we share the work of some of our Jesuit schools as they, too, begin another academic year.

As the new school year begins, Jesuit Schools are on the move!

• St. Ignatius College Prep invites us to Experience the Spirit and shares its video channels

• Chicago Jesuit Academy takes great pride in its success as a unique Chicago schools success story

• Christ the King Jesuit College Preparatory School emphatically says that We are Christ the King and celebrates the recent success of their R!se Up event including CBS2 Chicago’s coverage

• At St. Xavier, Fr. Tim Howe began the year with a welcome message for students and faculty

• Loyola Academy has a thank you message from students, teachers and alumni who have been touched by the generosity of the Loyola Academy community.
