Why Chesterton?

At Chesterton Academy, everything revolves around Jesus Christ. All classes point to the Incarnation as the central event in human history, so students will not just learn about their faith in one class, but across all the disciplines.

Christian Identity

Our classical curriculum combines a broad, liberal arts education with a strong emphasis on the development of Christian virtues and an appreciation of beauty.

Classical Curriculum

Chesterton Academy’s House system is drawn from the 1,000-year-old tradition of Catholic education exemplified in the colleges at Oxford and Cambridge. The Houses provide real, tangible community within the larger school, giving students the opportunity to take ownership, fulfill the call to leadership, and to cultivate the ideal conditions for virtue.

House System

Equal emphasis is given to the arts, so that every student learns to draw and paint, sing in the choir, act on the stage, give speeches, and engage in debate.
