Inspired by Pope St. John Paul II, we take as our motto Cultura Vitae, the culture of life. Our mission at Chesterton Academy is to prepare students to triumph over the materialism and despair that pervade our culture and to accept our Lord's offer to have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10).

Our classical curriculum combines a broad liberal arts education with a strong emphasis on the development of Christian virtues and an appreciation of beauty. Through our Three Pillars Model, we form our students in Intellect, Character Formation, and Spirituality.

We believe high school is not just about educating students to do something after they graduate, but to become someone great now.

We help students become fully alive in their faith and develop joy, intelligence, and virtue.
