Chesterton Academy of Akron

Happy Birthday, GK Chesterton! We hope our school makes you proud!

May Crowning!
Last week our Junior Classical students lead us in a celebration of Our Mother Mary with a crown of flowers. We ended with a cupcake rosary!

On Monday, of this our last week of school, we celebrated our first Donning of the Blues ceremony. We honored our St. Thomas More Junior Classical 8th grade class, who received their first Blue finishing item, as they are one step closer to high school. They received a blessing from Fr. Pfeiffer at St. Paul Parish Akron Ohio

So, this came in the mail today! Its official! We are a Catholic school AND a chartered school!

See you there!

He has Risen!

More from last week's Catholic schools week... On Friday we invited our families to join us for bagels after daily Mass. Because St. Paul's church is going through some renovations, we have been holding Mass in a temporary chapel in the cafeteria. You may have heard that we had a pipe burst, causing some water damage. The cafeteria area was heavily affected, but our chapel area was was completely untouched! Find the blessings where you can!
