Congratulations to the Class of 2023, we are so proud of you!

Class OF 2023!

Our four graduating seniors are heading off to college, on career paths, and vocational discernment! It is a proud moment for our school to be reminded of their growth into young men and women for Christ and send them on their way. We pray each and everyone of them continues to discover the person they were created to be and share themselves with others joyfully!


Unapologetically Pro-Life

At Chesterton Academy, we are proud to acclaim the dignity and incomparable value of human life at every stage. On the 49th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we were humbled to be able to send 6 of our students to Washington D.C. to participate in the National March for Life and National Pro-Life Summit! The leadership and hardwork of our students made this possible and we are so proud of them for taking a stand to help fight for the protection of those who are most vulnerable in our country.

March for Life

“I believe fully in the humanity of every child in the womb. Each child is a life, each life is a blessing, and every loss of life is a tragedy.… Because of this, it is the duty of every person with a voice to raise their voices in defense of these defenseless children.”

~CAWV Senior, Estelle Fordyce
