Our Model of Education
THE THREE PILLARS
Inspired by Saint Pope John Paul II, we take as our motto Cultura Vitae, the culture of life. We make it our mission to prepare our 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 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, and Spirituality.

The mission of Chesterton Academy of the Immaculate Heart is to provide an affordable Catholic education that forms the intellect, character, and soul of our students through Socratic discussion according to an integrated Classical curriculum centered around the Mystery of the Incarnation. Through this education, our students are led by faithful teachers in a rigorous course of study that combines the moral and intellectual virtues, training in the humanities, arts, and sciences, and frequent access to the Sacraments, leading them to contemplate God as the source and summit of the Good, the True, and the Beautiful, and preparing them for happiness, in this world and the next.
