St. Ignatius School (SIS) is a co-educational, Catholic Jesuit middle school (grades 6-8) in the South Bronx that empowers low-income students of all faiths to become their best selves by creating a safe and nurturing environment in which intellectual, spiritual and social growth are fostered.
100% of SIS’s operating costs are covered by grants and donations. This enables SIS to provide a comprehensive, tuition-free educational experience to students who qualify,* including:
Admission acceptances are announced on a rolling basis following completion of all admissions requirements.
*SIS is tuition-free for students who qualify for the Free or Reduced National School Lunch program which is based upon family income.
SIS enables students to succeed in an underserved neighborhood with traditionally poor educational outcomes. Using a Nativity School model, developed by Jesuit educators to address the unique needs of under-performing students in underserved communities, SIS empowers, inspires, and supports each student as a unique individual. SIS makes an 11-year commitment to its students, with built-in support programs for academic, personal, and spiritual growth that follow students from middle school, to high school, and through college – helping them achieve a far greater level of academic and personal success than local public or charter schools.
SIS graduates are accepted to public and private high schools, including:
