The campus is close to down-town, or as they say, ‘centrally-located’
which it is since Loyola students come from Malibu,
Santa Monica, North Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Hancock
Park, the San Gabriel Valley, Whittier, Long Beach,
Palos Verdes, and Pasadena.
In any one year, they
may receive applicants from as many as 225 Catholic
public and private elementary schools. The competition
is tough. Just to give you an idea of how tough the
competition is, last year they had 800 applicants for
300 places, and they generally give preference to Catholic
boys, although they do take in about 14% non-Catholics
each year.
Mission Statement: (as
taken from the school brochure)
“Loyola
High School of Los Angeles is a Catholic College preparatory
school for young men who represent the racial, ethnic,
and socio-economic diversity of greater Los Angeles.
Drawing upon the Jesuit tradition, Loyola is committed
to the development of the whole person through a challenging
educational experience of academic, co-curricular,
and religious opportunities. By teaching as Jesus
taught, Loyola is dedicated to inspiring its students
to develop as conscientious leaders and agents of
change who are intellectually distinguished, morally
courageous, and compassionate in service to others.”
