Cheverus High School is a private, Jesuit college preparatory school which exists to educate ambitious students in Southern Maine, by educating the 'whole person:' fostering intellectual, spiritual, physical and personal excellence. The Cheverus education is inspired by the teachings of the founder of the Jesuits, St. Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556). Ignatius' vision of the â??magisâ?? challenges the entire Cheverus community to seek the â??greater goodâ?? and to embody this vision by becoming men and women for and with others.
