Welcome to the Canisius High School website! Whether you have come upon our site intentionally or you have simply been surfing the World Wide Web, I am happy that you have found us. I hope you enjoy your visit to the electronic version of our school.
For over 450 years the Society of Jesus has been educating young people for the sole purpose of forming men and women for others. At Canisius High School, the Jesuits and the faith-filled men and women of Western New York have been educating the young men of Western New York since 1870. Our educational philosophy is deeply rooted in the spirituality of St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus.
Everything we do at Canisius High School is centered on our primary objective to form our young men into men for others who will actively live out the Gospel message of Jesus Christ. To that end we work with our young men to help them grow and develop into a person who is religious, open to growth, loving, intellectually competent and committed to a life of service in the promotion of justice.
I hope that you enjoy your visit to our website. I encourage you to contact us should you have any questions about the school. All of us at Canisius High School are grateful you stopped by for a visit. We look forward to having the opportunity to meet you one day should you stop by our campus. Until that time comes along, please know that we are praying for you and your loved ones.
Sincerely,
John Knight
