Each of us looks at our child as though there is no other like him - and in some ways that is true. But at Jesuit, we are working with 650 plus young men who are all special. And this year, while your sons are the kings of the kingdom, you may be dealing with a little ego, a little haughtiness and a lot of Mr. I'm in Charge because I'm the Oldest. And my job as counselor at Jesuit is to help your son survive and possibly enjoy that change.
Ninth grade is for peasants.
In August, at Freshman Orientation, those 190 former kings will look around this chapel and hope to God they see one familiar face. They hope not to trip. As their counselor, I live in these buildings and halls trying to make sure none of them get sick or, worse yet, cry and go home. Jesuit has a long tradition of providing a serious program of counseling. By November 1st, every one of the freshmen will have stopped in for his first Counseling Appointment upstairs in our center.
