Jesuit High School Sacramento to Admit Girls in 2027 Under Co-Divisional Model

Leaders call the mission-driven shift a response to enrollment trends, with applications opening October 2026.

Overview

  • The Board of Trustees approved the change, and the first cohort of girls is scheduled to enroll in Fall 2027.
  • The co-divisional approach will place boys and girls on the same campus with single-sex classroom instruction and shared social, spiritual, and co-curricular activities.
  • The admissions timeline sets applications to open in October 2026 with a January 2027 deadline for the inaugural co-divisional cohort.
  • Officials said strategic planning drove the decision, citing demographic analysis, interest from Catholic families with daughters, and financial sustainability.
  • School leaders said Jesuit will be the only co-divisional high school in California, and St. Francis High School in Sacramento remains an all-girls school.
