We encourage parents to get involved and help make a difference!
ALL PROCEEDS from the food, beverage, snow cone and beer sales within the school parking lot and 40% of the carnival ride revenue will be used to keep St. Helen's excellent educational program affordable to families of all backgrounds and sizes. Our School has been recognized as one of 25 top nonpublic elementary schools in the Chicago Metropolitan area.
Established in 1914, St. Helen Catholic School strives to educate the whole child. In doing so, a spiritual, academic, and social foundation is created. This formation, rooted in Gospel values, enables the graduate to develop as a responsible Christian citizen. We believe that it is a child's right to be educated in a nurturing and safe environment. Daily activities encourage the sense of positive self-esteem as well as the development of self-discipline. We unite for racial justice and celebrate cultural diversity. We promote active service to the school, parish, and community.
