Rockhurst High School is a Jesuit high school located in the United States in Kansas City, Missouri. It is located in the Missouri Province of the Society of Jesus and was founded in 1910. Rockhurst is part of a network of 47 other Jesuit high schools in the United States seeking to educate young men- and, in some instances, young women-for-others, tomorrow’s leaders. The school was officially chartered by the state of Missouri on August 30, 1910. Four years later, on the morning of September 15, 1914, forty-two students enrolled in the freshman and sophomore classes at the new school. Greeted by three Jesuit faculty members, they became the first of thousands of young men to be educated at Rockhurst, the first of whom graduated in 1917.
