What are BC High's Centers of Human Excellence?

The Centers of Human Excellence provide a way for BC High to define human excellence in our Jesuit context, helping our students fully grow into men of competence, conscience, compassion, and commitment. 

These centers are designed to nurture students into spiritual leaders, innovative thinkers, global citizens, and fierce advocates for social justice. The Centers open doors for students to connect classroom knowledge to real-world impact, empowering them to stretch their wings and take ownership of their future.

Each of our five centers offer a student-driven academic and formational Certificate Program that students can elect to begin during their sophomore year course selection process. There are five certificate tracks that our students can take to pursue depth inside the classroom, co-curriculary, and in the community.

Why the Centers of Human Excellence?

The Centers of Human Excellence pave the way for our school to define human excellence within the Jesuit context. The Centers play a vital role in helping students develop into individuals of competence, conscience, compassion, and commitment.

As a Jesuit institution, we are part of a global network of schools guided by important documents that shape our students’ formation. While each document serves its own purpose, together they create a comprehensive framework that responds to the mission of the Society of Jesus.

Each of our five Centers provide a robust framework that empowers students to become spiritually grounded leaders, innovators, global citizens, and passionate advocates for social justice. Supporting 50+ academic classes aligned with their respective spheres of influence, the Centers provide Eagles with greater opportunities to stretch their wings.

These courses not only embody the work of the Centers but also offer programmatic experiences that connect classroom learning to real-world applications.

Centers of Human Excellence Certificate Programs

Through the Centers of Human Excellence Certificate Programs BC High students can delve deeper into their interests.

These student-driven academic and formational programs intertwine the curriculum with Center programming, promoting intentional exploration of topics, self-reflection, and ownership of one’s learning.

Eagles register for Certificate Program courses during sophomore class registration and carry them through to Graduation.
