Loyola School was founded in 1900 in the Upper East Side of New York City by the Society of Jesus as a Catholic boys school with the unique combination of the strengths of both the Jesuit and American Independent School tradition. In 1973, Loyola became coeducational, 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. The school is located two city blocks east of Central Park and Museum Mile on 83rd Street and Park Avenue in Manhattan.
