Cor Jesu Academy

See how you can shine bright and be brilliant at Cor Jesu Academy!

Mission Statement

Cor Jesu Academy, a Catholic, college-preparatory school, offers an academically challenging program, committed to the total education of young women. Rooted in the same charism and loving spirit as the Apostles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, CJA welcomes everyone, of any faith tradition to experience, accept and share God’s love. Our dedicated faculty and staff help our students realize their whole potential, encouraging them to think beyond their textbooks, explore deeper questions and discover meaning in the curriculum, while also exploring their passions outside the classroom through clubs, choirs, teams and friendships. At Cor Jesu Academy, we take pride in empowering bright students to recognize and use their gifts, so they become brilliant women who are compelled to Share the Love of the Heart of Christ wherever they go.
