There’s nothing like the feeling of being exactly where you’re meant to be, surrounded by a faith-filled community that loves you and encourages you to embrace who you are.

At Cor Jesu, every student is welcomed and celebrated for who she is on her first day and who she’ll be on her last.  We empower 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. 

We invite you to see how we "do it with heart" at CJA!
