Welcome to Regis Jesuit High School, a Catholic, Jesuit, college preparatory high school serving young men and young women in grades 9-12. We are a co-divisional school, offering single-gender instruction by operating as two separate divisions—the Boys Division and the Girls Division - with opportunities for students to pray, serve and socialize together.
Our 82-acre campus houses a Boys Division building and a Girls Division building, each with a full-size gym, multi-media library and chapel. In addition to these buildings our campus offers the following shared facilities: nine athletic fields, six tennis courts, a field house and pool, college counseling center, a performing arts and student commons building—the Steele Center—with a theatre, music classrooms, communications center with broadcast studio, snack bar café and commons spaces for community gatherings. With our facilities and spacious grounds, many people think our campus has the feel of a small college.
One of the defining characteristics of a Jesuit school is that it not only provides education, but formation. The hallmark of Jesuit education is cura personalis, the care and concern for the individual. This educational community provides a student-centered environment in which each individual can develop intellectually, socially, emotionally and spiritually.
Academically, Regis Jesuit provides honors classes and Advanced Placement courses, as well as many electives in our block schedule. Athletic and co-curricular activities offer many opportunities for character and leadership development, fun and friendship. The benefit of getting involved is found in trying something new, discovering hidden talents and pushing personal limits. Regis Jesuit offers a safe and supportive environment which encourages students to get involved. It is a place where students can find positive peer pressure by surrounding themselves with people who care about them and who will help them excel.
Regis Jesuit High School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, athletic and other school-administered programs.
Our students are challenged to grow spiritually through retreats, liturgies, faith-sharing and daily prayer in the Ignatian tradition. And our Service Program encourages students to expand and deepen their commitment to becoming Men and Women with and for Others.
As the only co-divisional school among the network of almost 60 Jesuit high schools in the United States, Regis Jesuit's unique approach provides the best of both worlds for students seeking the benefits of a single gender learning environment as well as a wide variety of co-curricular activities.
We serve the greater Denver metropolitan area by developing leaders within a diverse and caring environment who are open to growth, striving for intellectual competence, religious, loving and committed to doing justice – the five pillars of Jesuit high school education known as the Graduate at Graduation.
Regis Jesuit aims to form a community of individuals who embody the school’s mission and values by being Open to Growth, Intellectually Competent, Religious, Loving and Committed to Doing Justice. Regis Jesuit graduates have the maturity to take responsibility for their own actions and growth. Graduates know that learning is a life-long process of intellectual, spiritual, and personal development. Graduates understand that having experiences outside of their worldview is important to their development.
Regis Jesuit graduates master those academic requirements necessary for advancing their formal education and skillfully using the fundamental tools of learning. Moreover, graduates realize the need to practice intellectual integrity. Regis Jesuit graduates, through study of the Roman Catholic faith, will come to know and experience God as one who understands and loves them completely and is there for them through their suffering and joy. Graduates have a deep understanding of and respect for their own religious traditions and those of others. They also have a strong foundation in personal prayer, spirituality, moral conscience and religious conviction. They seek to know God by proclaiming and responding to His love through the scriptures and especially through Jesus Christ in the Gospels and the Holy Spirit in prayer and in daily life.
Regis Jesuit graduates move beyond self-interest and self-centeredness. They are confident and seek deeper levels of relationships in which one can disclose feelings, accept the mystery of another person, and cherish that person. They experience God’s love and respond by loving self, family, friends, members of the school community, the poor and the suffering as people of God. They understand that love gives witness to faith and speaks out through action and service on behalf of a world community for justice, love and peace.
Regis Jesuit graduates acquire the awareness, skills and motivation necessary to live as Men and Women with and for Others who are leaders through service in imitation of Christ Jesus. Graduates are committed to justice that is grounded in the knowledge of the roots of injustice in social institutions, attitudes and customs and understand the values of a consumer society can be in conflict with the demands of a just society and the Gospel. They express their empathy for others and a commitment to doing justice by voluntarily engaging in service.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
My child attends Regis Jesuit High School in Colorado and we couldn't be happier with the quality of education they are receiving. The teachers are extremely dedicated and helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure my child's success. We have seen tremendous progress in their academic and personal growth.
