Future Holy Name High School joins prestigious Chesterton Academy network
When Holy Name High School reopens this fall, it will have an updated name to reflect its association with the prestigious Chesterton Schools Network: Holy Name High School - A Chesterton Academy. Joining the Chesterton Schools Network will afford our students many exciting opportunities to build community with other faithful young adults through pilgrimages, mission trips, and the March for Life in Washington, D.C. The network is a well-oiled machine with a proven track record of academic success, said Joe Carlson, principal. To illustrate this, Carlson noted that the national average ACT score is 21, yet Chesterton Academys average is 26. Chesterton Schools Network is a nationwide network of 30 high schools in the United States, Canada and Italy that, according to its website, offer joyfully Catholic, classical high schools in which students enjoy an integrated, content-rich education. Famed English writer and Catholic con- vert G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) is the networks namesake. Commenting on how the high school will offer students an exceptional education in an authentic Catholic environment, Bishop John Doerfler said: The Chesterton Academy provides a solid cur- riculum that dovetails with the classical liberal arts curriculum in our grade schools. It is exciting to provide a seamless and solid program from ele- mentary through high school to form the students spiritually, intellectually and personally. Fostering a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and grow- ing in the Catholic faith is central to our mission.
