Chesterton Academy of St. Louis

Raising up a new generation of joyful leaders and saints educated in the classical tradition and truths of the Catholic faith.

Chesterton Academy strives to raise up virtuous young men and women in the Catholic tradition of faith and reason, centered on the truth of the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ. Inspired by Pope Saint John Paul the Great, we take as our motto Cultura Vitae, the culture of life. Our mission 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. Our goal is to help students develop the skills and character requisite for success in college and professional life, and to excel in service of family, of country, and of Christ.
