Loyola School was founded in 1900 in the Upper East Side of New York City by the Society of Jesus. Originally a Catholic boys school, Loyola has been coeducational since 1973 and today Loyola is the only Jesuit, independent, and coed college preparatory secondary school in the Tri-State Region. With a student enrollment of two hundred, the average class size of fifteen students promotes personal attention and individual participation. Loyola students receive an education whose focus is to foster life-long learning and to produce graduates who are academically excellent, open to growth, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice in service to others. Recent graduates attend top-tier colleges and universities, including the Ivy League, "Little Ivies", and Jesuit colleges and universities. The school is located two city blocks east of Central Park and Museum Mile on 83rd Street and Park Avenue in Manhattan.
