I want my kid to be Jesuit-educated, but he is only in 2nd grade. Are there Jesuit schools for kids in elementary?

Tue, May 24, 2005 - 5:20 PMGood to know it's out there....I'm going to start investigating right away. I got some good leads on the "Catholic" tribe, too.
Adso, I understand your concern, but I don't want a "catholic" education for my son. I want a Jesuit education, which is one of the best kinds of educations you can get. those guys are pretty liberal, generally speaking, and smart as anything. -

Wed, May 25, 2005 - 12:37 PMHHmmmmm, Jesuit homeschooling...........The thought never occured to me. No I didn't google jesuit elementary schools yet. I will try. My other thought has been to start my own (secular) school. I am kicking a bunch of ideas around right now.... -

Fri, May 26, 2006 - 8:53 AMEllen, I had a Jesuit spiritual director for a few years and he remains my favorite priest. Literate, articulate, curious. I wish I'd had the education he received as a kid.
