Welcome to St. Michael School ...

Welcome to St. Michael Elementary School, a community of learners where quality education is provided within the context of Christian living. With the tradition of Catholic education as the foundation for our existence, we promote academic excellence and the Gospel values of justice and peace. The families and staff members of St. Michael School take pride in the rich diversity of culture, language, and ethnic origin which encourages a global concern for all peoples of the earth.

We align our academic curriculum with state standards and endeavor to incorporate best practices throughout the instructional program. St. Michael School is certified by the Archdiocese of Chicago and has received full recognition by the Illinois State Board of Education and the National Association for the Education of Young Children.

Situated in the neighborhood of South Chicago, the school is two blocks from the Metra Station, thus providing a convenient location for parents who travel into the city for employment. An Extended Day Program that begins at 7:00 A.M. and remains open until 6:00 P.M. is another convenience that is offered to working parents as is the breakfast and lunch program that is subsidized by federal funding.


Every new student entering school must have completed immunization forms and health exam on file in the secretary’s office before you will be permitted to enter school. These include pre-schoolers, Kindergarteners, second and fifth graders. Those students who are continuing students at St. Michael must submit updated immunization forms, health exam, and dental records.

Todo estudiante nuevo debe lllenar la roma de imunizacion, asegurar que toda vacuna este al dia y regresarla antes de empezar las clases, el 25 de agosto del presente. Los demas estudiantes deben de reviser que sus imunizaciones tambien esten al dia.
