Admission

Thank you for taking a closer look at St. Athanasius!

We are a Catholic school community based in Evanston, serving families from north Chicago and the North Shore. We welcome all applicants for enrollment in junior kindergarten, kindergarten, elementary and middle school.

St. Athanasius offers an holistic approach to engage students spiritually, physically, emotionally and academically. Catholic tradition is woven throughout student life. Our children develop into life-long learners, form everlasting friendships, serve God and care for others.

Our committed faculty and staff take seriously the responsibility of educating your child. We value the importance of finding the right fit for your family, and look forward to meeting you.

“When I toured the school and learned that foreign language education started in Kindergarten and that by 8th grade the students were taking trips to foreign countries, I knew that St. A's had a more well-rounded perspective that I wanted in a school.”

— Elizabeth Lopez

“Catholic schools as a whole, and particularly St. A's for us, reinforce what we are trying to teach our children at home: a relationship with God that is part of our everyday life, excellent academics, a community of supportive teachers and parents, and accountability for our children to treat each other with respect."

— Maggie Swider

“I move forward with the knowledge and confidence that my 8th grader is wonderfully prepared for what is ahead of her because of her 9 years at St. A's. Not only is she prepared academically, but she also has confidence, a kind heart, and the knowledge that she is blessed with a great foundation of support that she can lean on.”
