Saint Ignatius College Prep, a Jesuit Catholic school in the heart of Chicago, is a diverse community dedicated to educating young men and women for lives of faith, love, service and leadership. Through outstanding teaching and personal formation, the school challenges its talented student body to intellectual excellence, integrity, and life-long learning and growth. Inspired by the gospel of Jesus Christ, this community strives to use God's gifts to promote social justice for the greater glory of God.

Founded in 1869, St. Ignatius is a storied institution that annually serves over 1400 high school students from 295 grammar schools and 160 zip codes.  As a distinguished member among the 430 Jesuit high schools in 55 nations around the world, Saint Ignatius College Prep dedicates itself to preparing young men and women for lives of faith, love, service, and leadership in the Jesuit tradition of “Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam” or “for the greater honor and glory of God.”

The five ideals known as Ignatian Values were set forth by Ignatius Loyola, our school’s patron saint and founder of the Society of Jesus, or “the Jesuits.” These Ignatian values inspire and guide all Saint Ignatius students, faculty, and staff to seek the “magis,” or “more,” to live in pursuit of justice and service to the community in the model of Jesus Christ.

This is an incredibly exciting time at Saint Ignatius. After a planning process, the President has announced a new leadership structure aligned around two distinct and critical facets of school life facets: academic leadership (Prefect of Studies) and spiritual leadership (Prefect of Mission). This model will allow for close collaboration between the two main areas of the institution.  The school now seeks candidates for its inaugural Prefect of Mission role. 

Additional information regarding this pre-eminent Catholic school community can be found on the school's website at www.ignatius.org.

All inquiries, nominations, and applications will be treated with the highest degree of confidentiality and with the greatest respect.
