YES! I'd like to support Chesterton Academy!
Chesterton Academy of The Florida Martyrs is an exciting new institution that will shape our children for decades to come, giving them a Christ-centered, classical education filled with truth, goodness, and beauty. Help us form saints!
Why Donate?
By supporting our school, you will be helping to build a vibrant, joyful community where students and families can experience the joy of learning and grow in holiness together, so they can share that love with others. However, as with most good things, it takes significant money to launch and sustain a school.
We receive no operational funding from the Diocese. We're on our own. This school is completely independent and supported by parents and donors who believe in its mission.
Please join our mission by donating to Chesterton Academy of The Florida Martyrs!
Our Status
Chesterton Academy of The Florida Martyrs is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
We aim to keep tuition low to allow all families to attend. Tuition for the 2023-2024 school year is $7,920 per student. As a result of our low tuition, we must raise considerable funds to meet our operating budget since it will cost roughly $25,000 per student to educate our founding students this year.
That's a considerable amount, indeed, but we are confident there are enough people of good will who believe in the importance of our school and want to invest in something that produces real, lasting, tangible results: namely, young people who know Christ, love the Church, and radiate the genius of our Catholic tradition.
At a time when so many young people are leaving the Church, supporters like you can help reverse that trend, keeping more of our children faithfully in the Church.
