“The greatest lesson I learned at Arrupe is that my value as a person is not based on what I have, what I look like or where I come from. Instead my value as a person is measured in the positive impact I make on other people’s lives.”
- Karina, Arrupe Jesuit High School Class of 2019

Get To Know Our Partner: Arrupe Jesuit High School
1. Arrupe Jesuit High School offers a rigorous college preparatory Jesuit Catholic education to economically disadvantaged students in the Denver metro area. Their goal is to empower graduates who will continue their education and return as leaders in their communities.
2. Through a unique Corporate Work Study Program, students spend five days per month working for a corporate partner, learning critical skills such as information technology, marketing, client and customer relations, and workplace etiquette. This unique model helps to subsidize the cost of tuition and sets Arrupe Jesuit students apart.
3. Now in its 17th year, Arrupe Jesuit has a proven track record of success. One hundred percent of the school's 2019 graduates were accepted to college, and 95 percent were the first in their family to be accepted into college. Over half of those graduates were the first in their family to graduate from high school.
4. Regis University is proud to enroll Arrupe Jesuit graduates each year, and has already accepted 51 seniors from the Class of 2020. Since Arrupe Jesuit’s first class in 2007, 91 graduates have completed a degree at Regis University, with another 78 currently enrolled.
