Welcome to St. Agnes Catholic School

About Us.....

For over 100 years, St. Agnes Catholic School has been providing quality, faith based education to families in Chicago Heights and the surrounding communities. We meet the constant challenge to provide for the changing needs of our students and families, both academically and spiritually. Our children learn and grow in a comprehensive educational program that nurtures spiritual growth, promotes social responsibility and fosters academic excellence. St. Agnes Catholic School has a rich history of educating generations of children from returning families, while cultivating an environment that welcomes new families to our parish and school.

The success of St. Agnes Catholic School impacts the long-term health and vitality of the city of Chicago Heights. St. Agnes is an active and highly visible member of the community at large, and we are a positive and stabilizing presence in the immediate neighborhood. We have a long history within the community, and we are among those institutions, including St. James Hospital and Marian Catholic High School, whose presence matters.

St Agnes preschool offers four year old children the opportunity to grow in a program that incorporates academics, social skills and enrichment activities through creative and age appropriate methods.

St. Agnes provides a solid core curriculum for kindergarten - 8th grade boys and girls in the language arts, mathematics and sciences. Fine arts instruction, a comprehensive, integrated technology program and instructional physical education classes enhance our core curriculum. Our students are part of a warm caring school and parish community that helps them learn and grow as individuals with unique talents and abilities.

Our Mission

St. Agnes Catholic School is an elementary program offering solid high school academic readiness for boys and girls in preschool through grade eight. Our students are prepared to meet challenges through a comprehensive education that fosters academic excellence, nurtures spiritual growth and promotes social responsibility within a diverse community. Grounded in the Catholic tradition instilled by the Sisters of St. Francis, St. Agnes faculty encourages each child to strive for personal enrichment while growing in knowledge and faith.

Our Philosophy

The educational experience at St. Agnes Catholic School is guided by the following principles:

  • St. Agnes fosters loyalty to the Church, family and community by strengthening the moral and spiritual values instilled at home.
  • St. Agnes provides a challenging curriculum that incorporates innovative teaching strategies and evelving technology.
  • St. Agnes promotes a Christ-like atmosphere where our students are guided through religious instruction and service to recognize each person as a unique child of God.
