order to properly accommodate the student body and to enable the school to offer the curriculum outlined by the Ministry of Education. Loyola considered a number of possible options for the future building, including adding an extension onto the Junior Building, and relocating the school to Côte Saint-Luc on land owned by Loyola (currently the location of Côte Saint-Luc City Hall). The school eventually made arrangements with Concordia University to swap the Junior Building for a site on the south-west end of Loyola campus beside the school gymnasium. The new building was completed in 1992. The Bishops Atrium and a three-story wing was constructed in 2004, along with an auditorium the following year. Academic In the school’s Mission Statement, Loyola is described as a “university-preparatory school.” Students are also expected to complete the requirements for a Secondary School Diploma to be admitted to C.E.G.E.P. Core and optional subjects offered in the high school curriculum are broken down according to cycle - Cycle 1 (years 1 and 2) and Cycle 2 (years 3, 4, and 5). The high school performs competitively locally and provincially in examinations results. Religious and spiritual formation As a Catholic and Jesuit school, all of Loyola's activities are meant to be inspired by Catholic teachings in the tradition of St. Ignatius of Loyola. In 2015 Loyola's Board of Governors put forward a five-year strategic plan which identified five "foundational pillars" in order to pursue the school's mission. The plan proposed, among other things, to "infuse all programmes with a truly Catholic and Ignatian pedagogy" and to "foster the maintenance of an Ignatian environment that engages the broader Loyola community" While the school's president is ultimately responsible for ensuring the school's spiritual mission, the Loyola Ignatian Formation director oversees its particular activities in the entire Loyola community (alumni, parents, faculty, and students). The Campus Ministry is tasked with overseeing students' spiritual formation. Jesuit affiliation Loyola is a member of the American Jesuit Schools Network, and is administered by the Jesuits of English Canada. The two Jesuit provinces, English and French, are currently in the process of merging into one Canadian Jesuit province. Athletics Loyola fields a number of athletic teams in competition with other schools in Canada and the United States, primarily competing in the Greater Montreal Athletics Association and Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec. Loyola's traditional rivals in athletics are Lower Canada College and Selwyn House
