We are a Catholic, Jesuit, college preparatory high school serving nearly 1700 young men and women in grades 9-12 in becoming Men and Women with and for Others.
With nearly 150 years of history behind us, we are a Roman Catholic educational community rooted firmly in the nearly 500-year-old model of Jesuit education, leading the way in preparing students for the 21st century.
Our unique educational model combines the advantages of single-sex instruction with opportunities for young men and women to collaborate, serve, pray and socialize together to form the whole person—mind, body and spirit.
The strength of Regis Jesuit is found in the depth and diversity of its broad community of students, parents and alumni who strengthen and share their gifts through a lifelong Raider experience.
The transformational student experience has been developed thanks to a long tradition of generous philanthropic support of our enduring educational mission.
Today was such a bittersweet ending to this experience. We started off the day with a walk around Cerro Punta early in the morning. The Cerro Punta group and I walked up a hill, and we saw such a beautiful view.
Camp today was very bittersweet. We had a lot of fun playing captura la bandera, futbol, and frisbee, and also throwing globos de agua. Even though there were muchas trampas, it was still muy divertido.
Today was our last full day with the group here in Guadalupe with many activities with the kids, 2 wonderful walking tours, and a goodbye celebration for the group and host families.
During our reflection time today, we focused strongly on what moments of the trip that we are grateful for. We discussed smell, sight, taste, and sounds of the day that stood out to us. We discussed that liminal space is the in between moments that help create new life.
Today was nature day at camp so we started off by naming our favorite animals and ended with a short walk around the town picking up trash. In the afternoon we met up with the Cerro Puntas crew and took a tour of the local botanical garden, Finca Dracula.
Today was another divertida day in Cerro Punta, Panama. I woke up in the morning to the sound of the dogs barking outside and Mama Nely making breakfast. If you have been looking at the photos, you may have noticed that I am slightly sunburned.
There's lots of energy to go around on the second day of the camp with the children of Guadalupe. Sports, skits, and throwing rocks in the river were some activities the group participated in.
Today was meant to be a similar schedule, another day of camp at the children’s school but rain gave us a change of plans. We all gathered in the main building when half of us went to pick up the children.
Last night we arrived in the mountain town of Cerro Punta, in Tierras Altas (High Lands) and all I can say is that I do NOT want to leave this place. Compared to the exhaustingly humid air in Panama City, the cool air and peaceful view of the mountains make this the perfect destination for me.
Today we started out very early and said goodbye to Panama City and hello to our host families. We landed in David this morning and had a beautiful drive to the mountains.
Today, we woke up early in the morning at 6 AM to the loud sound of an Iguana running around on the retreat center’s loud metal roof. However, despite that loud wake up we were reenergized with some good sleep.
Fake baby. Grown man. Our arrival at the airport started off a little strange as we were surprised by a shockingly real-looking baby doll. We landed in Panama City, Panama at 5:00 AM. EARLY.
Today was the first day of our ten day stay in Panama! We arrived at Casa de Retiro Monte Alverna early this morning and set expectations for the week.
Giggles are made by walking too, apparently. No sooner than passing through security, our energized, giddy seniors planned to discover which was faster: walking on the people mover or running on the regular floor on our way to the gate.
