Join Our Growing Team at Chesterton Academy of The Holy Family!

Under the patronage of G.K. Chesterton and in partnership with families and the Church, the mission of Chesterton Academy of The Holy Family is to foster a Culture of Life by forming a new generation of joyful leaders and saints, educated in the classical tradition and grounded in the truths of the Catholic faith.

Discover Chesterton Academy of The Holy Family, a joyfully Catholic, classical high school dedicated to forming a new generation of joyful leaders and saints. Inspired by Saint Pope John Paul II, our motto, Cultura Vitae-the culture of life-reflects our mission to prepare students to overcome the materialism and despair of modern culture, embracing the abundant life Christ offers. Our classical curriculum provides a broad liberal arts education, grounded in the cultivation of Christian virtues and a deep appreciation for truth, goodness, and beauty.

Affiliated with the Diocese of Joliet, Chesterton Academy of The Holy Family is proud to contribute to Catholic classical high school education.

Our school was founded as a small, faithful community of families working together to build up the Church. In order to preserve this close-knit, family-like atmosphere, we are committed to keeping our enrollment intentionally small-never exceeding 180 students on campus-so that every student is known, loved, and formed in a deeply personal way.
