Saint Ignatius Loyola School is a private, co-educational grammar school on Manhattan's Upper East Side. It serves students from PreK-3 through eighth grade and is affiliated with the Archdiocese of New York.

History

The school was founded in 1854 as a parochial school to serve Irish families in the Yorkville neighborhood. [1] The parish was transferred to the Society of Jesus in 1866, who introduced a Jesuit-inspired educational approach. [2]

The Upper Campus building at 48 East 84th Street has housed the school since 1906. [1] The school is part of the historic parish complex that includes the landmark Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, which was completed in 1898, was designated a New York City Landmark in 1969, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. [3]

Campus

The school operates two campuses on East 84th Street:

The school is part of the parish complex anchored by the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola. The interiors have served as a filming location for several television series, including the CW series Gossip Girl (Season 1, Episode 8) [10] and HBO series Succession (Season 4, Episode 9). [11] [12]

Academics

The curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, STEM (including coding classes, a working greenhouse used by all grades, and widespread technology integration), the arts, and character development rooted in Jesuit values of diligence, integrity, compassion, and social justice. [13]

It maintains a student–teacher ratio of approximately 12:1 [14] with 99% of faculty holding advanced degrees. [15] The school is supported by a $50 million endowment, among the largest for a New York City elementary/middle school. [15] It has received the National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence award three times (2011, 2018, and 2024). [1] [16] [17] [18]

Student life

The school offers interscholastic sports (basketball, soccer, track) [19] and a wide range of after-school clubs, including acting, animal habitats, art appreciation, arts and crafts, coding, cheer club, chess, creative writing, dance, drama, game club, sports club, screenwriting, sculpture making, yoga, and many others. [20] [1] Community events include science fairs, concerts, and annual traditions such as the St. Blaise feast day blessing of the throats. [1]

The close-knit community draws families of all faiths, primarily from Manhattan's Upper East Side. [1]

Secondary school placement

The school is regarded as a premier feeder school with graduates attending a wide range of competitive secondary schools in New York City and beyond. [1] Demonstrative of this academic rigor, the Class of 2025 was awarded $5.1 million in merit-based scholarships. [21]
