Social Sciences
Department Philosophy
Loyola High School and the Social Science Department facilitate student analysis and understanding of social issues in historical context. We guide students to understand the scientific and interpretive methods for human behavior in societies. Our purpose is to have young men who understand the Jesuit value of empathy for others while seeking justice and becoming model citizens with a sense of civic duty.
Graduation Requirements (6 semesters)
Students are required to complete at least six semesters of social sciences beginning sophomore year. Sophomores must take a full-year World History or AP World History. Juniors must take a full-year course in United States History. Seniors must take two electives (one each semester), or a year-long course offerings from among the various social science electives.
