• A Catholic, Jesuit School

  As a school of the Society of Jesus founded in Cuba in 1854 and later exiled to Miami in 1961, Belen is Catholic and Jesuit by nature. Belen Jesuit is a member of the Society of Jesus Caribbean Province, which consists of the sections of Miami, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Jamaica, and Guyana.
  
  At Belen, students learn what it means to be men for others. They grow in faith and are inspired to work for justice for the poor and persecuted. Some students also travel to places like the Dominican Republic over the summer on immersion trips to live and work in solidarity with people in third-world countries, and all students volunteer in their local communities. They attend retreats and grow closer to God through Ignatian prayer.
