Alumni

Lauren Giglio-Thomas

Students

Ian

“Being a teacher goes hand in hand with the Jesuit ideal of being a person for others. Teachers work in a service, care-based industry that helps others grow at the most malleable point in their lives. ”

Students

Tiffany

“What drew me to Loyola is its emphasis on the Jesuit value of cura personalis (care for the whole person). Only through a holistic education—one that serves mind, body, and soul—can true achievement be attained.”

Alumni

Maria Hagen

“The values of the Jesuits when it comes to education shapes Loyola’s program. It was a big influence on teaching candidates to respond to the individual student, to be driven by their needs.”

Testimonials

Because of my degree, my Principal created an instructional technology position for me at my school. I'm so thankful for my experience at Loyola, I'm more knowledgeable, more confident and a leader among my peers. I've made lasting friendships and professional connections. Nia Wilkes
M.Ed. in Educational Technology, '16 Instructional Technology Teacher, Lewisdale Elementary School, Prince George's County

I chose Loyola due to its focus on students and their whole person. Loyola’s cohort partnership with Montgomery County Public Schools, where I work, made it very convenient to take classes! The professors and internship site supervisors support and guide you through the process of becoming a school leader. Megan Herman
M.Ed. Educational Leadership, '18 Classroom Teacher, Montgomery County Public Schools

I like the cohort experience because, throughout my program, I take classes with nearly the same group of peers with whom I started. As we are familiar with each other, we are able to dig deeper into controversial topics and take risks in sharing our thoughts and experiences as educators. Eboni Akpan Zook
