St Xavier's School, Jaipur


St Xavier's Senior Secondary School is a Jesuit secondary school in Jaipur, in Rajasthan in north-western India.

History

The school was established in 1943. Following a visit to St Xavier's School, Patna, Mirza Ismail, the prime minister of Jaipur State, wished to have a similar institution in his home city, Jaipur. As a result, the Jesuits took over management of St. Mary's Boys School, which had been founded two years earlier, in 1941. The school became co-educational in 1989.
