Jesuit Gridiron Classic Raises $1 Million for WJA!

Gonzaga College High School and Georgetown Preparatory School took to the field once again for the annual Jesuit Gridiron Class (JGC) game, benefitting the Washington Jesuit Academy.  This rivalry brings out hoards of cheering fans in an endless sea of purple and blue, and now we are proud to announce that this rivalry has also raised a total of $1 Million for WJA!

Though Georgetown Prep took home the win from the September 17th game, the true winners were the students of the Washington Jesuit Academy.  The funds raised from the annual JGC help provide scholarships for students from low-income communities to receive an exceptional, private education at WJA.

We would like to say THANK YOU to Bank of Georgetown for three years of tremendous support of the JGC, and also thank you to those who helped to support the Academy by buying a ticket, placing an ad in the program, and showing up in support of this great event!
