History
Families in Juiz de Fora acquired a palm farm and persuaded the Jesuits to open a school there. Eleven years later the first headquarters of "Our Lady Immaculate College" opened in the city with seven Jesuits – two priests, three brothers, and two scholastics – and 40 students in attendance.

The secondary school was added in 1958. It was later replaced by a new building on Avenida Presidente Itamar Franco. In 1963 pre-primary was added and in 1964 the scientific course. Enrollment had grown to 416 students. By 1967 "Jesuit College" had 700 students, including six women.
