Catholic Identity
We are a Blue Ribbon Catholic school in Arlington Heights, IL, a northwest suburb of Chicago. It is a privilege for us to provide our students with an excellent AND a Catholic academic foundation. Classroom religious instruction, scripture study, daily prayer and a focus on service help promote faith formation and instill Catholic values. Regular liturgical and traditional devotional practices are an integral part of our religious program. All of these elements help students develop a deep Catholic spirituality and a strong relationship with God.
