Saint Gilbert Catholic School is recognized as a 2017 National Blue Ribbon School by the United States Department of Education. We incorporate Catholic values into all aspects of our students' daily lives while striving for excellence in academics. Students are encouraged to build upon their relationship with God as they prepare for their lifelong academic journey. 

Saint Gilbert Catholic School follows Curriculum and Benchmarks set forth by the Archdiocese of Chicago Office of Catholic Schools in English, reading, math and science which are aligned with the:

Our Commitment to you:

  • We will get to know each individual child, learning his/her passions, strengths and challenges.

  • We will encourage children to be active contributors to the community and hold them accountable for their choices.

  • We will provide opportunities for students to work on difficult tasks and learn academic concepts requiring perseverance in order to succeed.

 

Bringing real-world experience into the classroom is central to our mission. We are committed to creating a school community where we embrace and empower success across every race, gender, ethnicity, religion, and economic background. As we instill the quality of respect in our students, they learn to listen with an open mind and learn from others who may have different backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints.

 

Early Childhood

As these students begin their educational journey, we blend academic lessons with hands-on activities. We create an environment where they learn traditional educational concepts, but also begin to understand social interactions.

 

Elementary (Grades 1–5)

Our elementary program serves students from first to fifth grade. Lessons in the elementary classes are interactive and engaging, giving each student ample opportunity to express interests, ask questions, and make meaningful contributions.

 

Middle School (Grades 6–8)

Our Middle School program serves students from sixth to eighth grades. Our program blends a rigorous academic curriculum with faith based learning that prepares students for high school and beyond.
