Jesuit Sacramento: A Co-Divisional High School
1 School, 2 Divisions…Welcoming girls and boys starting in Fall 2027
“This is a moment of transformation,” said President Chris Alling. “Guided by our Ignatian values and the pioneering spirit of our founders, we are shaping a future where innovation and tradition unite.”
Co-divisional is an innovative approach to learning and student development. Co-divisional means Jesuit High School Sacramento is one school featuring two academic divisions, a Boys’ Division and a Girls’ Division. This preserves the benefits of single-sex education while offering vibrant, integrated co-curricular experiences. The separation into two divisions makes this educational model different from a traditional co-ed school setting, where boys and girls are integrated in all aspects of their daily school life.
Girls, both freshmen and transfers, will have the opportunity to attend Jesuit beginning with the 2027-2028 school year.
Continuing Jesuit’s Mission — Strengthening Our Future
A Message from the Board of Trustees Chair Kelly Brothers ’82
Dear Marauder Family,
For more than 60 years, Jesuit High School Sacramento has remained true to its mission: forming young people of conscience, competence, and compassion. As we look to the future, we do so with the same purpose and faith, preparing to transition to a Co-Divisional model beginning in the 2027–28 school year.
This approach will preserve single-sex formation while expanding shared opportunities, ensuring Jesuit continues to thrive for generations to come.
Jesuit High School Sacramento Announces Historic Transition to Co-Divisional Education Model
Jesuit High School Sacramento, a cornerstone of Catholic education in the region for over six decades, proudly announces a bold and mission-driven evolution: beginning in Fall 2027, Jesuit Sacramento will welcome its first cohort of young women, becoming the only co-divisional high school in California.
This transformative decision, overwhelmingly approved by the Jesuit High School of Sacramento Board of Trustees, reflects a deep commitment to the school’s founding mission and a visionary response to the changing educational landscape. The new co-divisional model will feature two distinct academic divisions—a Boys Division and a Girls Division—preserving the benefits of single-sex education while offering vibrant, integrated co-curricular experiences.
