Regis Jesuit High School’s new 65,000-square-foot Science & Innovation Center is a state-of-the-art facility designed to enhance STEM education while complementing the school’s strong liberal arts foundation. Officially opened for Spring 2023, the center provides cutting-edge science classrooms, an 8,000-square-foot Innovation Center, and expanded media labs, offering students hands-on opportunities in robotics, rocket science, environmental science, studio arts, and more.

The facility supports interdisciplinary exploration, creativity, and entrepreneurship, equipping students with real-world skills through project-based learning and collaboration. A key architectural feature is its inverted corridor design, which maximizes natural light and fosters collaboration through informal breakout spaces and a multi-story lobby with student display areas and learning steps.

Beyond academics, the Science & Innovation Center serves as a new gateway to the Regis Jesuit campus, housing a new admissions center and the McCallin Alumni Center. The addition of Our Lady of the Way Chapel reinforces the school’s Catholic, Jesuit tradition, while McNicholas Plaza, a 4,000-square-foot outdoor space, provides opportunities for student and community events.

With a $36 million investment, this transformative project advances Regis Jesuit’s commitment to innovation, education, and community engagement, providing students with the tools, technology, and collaborative spaces needed to excel in an ever-evolving world.
