Our Mission

Brooklyn Jesuit Prep is a Catholic Jesuit middle school serving low-income families of diverse races, ethnicities and faiths in the East Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn. Our mission is to develop young leaders who are intellectually competent, open to growth, loving, religious and committed to doing justice. We achieve this goal through a rigorous academic program during an extended school day, a residential summer leadership camp and a graduate support program offering academic and tuition support through high school. In this way, we break the cycle of poverty through education and further the Jesuit tradition of molding men and women for others.

Building Futures.  Changing Lives.

100% of our students are of color, 81% are either immigrants or first-generation Americans, and 80% qualify for free or reduced price lunch from the government.

We serve them through a rigorous, extended-day middle school curriculum, a transformative residential summer leadership camp and a graduate support program offering academic and tuition support through high school. In this way, we break the cycle of poverty through education by altering the trajectory of our students' lives, and we further the Jesuit tradition of molding men and women for others.
