Nativity School of Worcester is an accredited, Jesuit, private, tuition-free school for underserved students in the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th grades who are residents of the City of Worcester. The school has a maximum of 17 students in each grade. The small class size encourages individual growth in the Jesuit tradition: attention to the needs and talents of each individual student, low student-teacher ratio, opportunities for expression in the arts and in sports, and a dedication to service in the local community and the broader world. Drawing upon four pillars – strength, scholarship, character, and service – a Nativity education inspires self-discovery, responsibility, spiritual growth, and a lifelong dedication to learning.
