What Makes Us Unique


The heart of a Wheeling Jesuit education lies in learning to discern God’s will in our lives, in all that we are and do. A Jesuit education provides reasoning, imagination, expression, and value, so our students can be confident of success in the world and, more important, capable as leaders in service to others. Discernment allows you to direct your life to a Christ-like giving of yourself to others and to become a faith-filled person, motivated by love of God and others in such a way that you make your life decisions more for the glory of God ("ad majoram Dei gloriam") and service to your community than merely for your own personal desires
