St. Catherine-St. Lucy School (SCSL) is an Archdiocese of Chicago school and also a Big Shoulders Plus school, serving low-income, pre- and elementary school students and families principally from the Austin neighborhood. The student population is 100% African American, and 65% of our families qualify for free/reduced lunch. Through the combination of its rigorous educational model and nurturing environment, SCSL has transformed hundreds of lives and launched generations of St. Catherine-St. Lucy graduates on the path to success.
The St. Catherine-St. Lucy administration, faculty, and staff are well acquainted with the challenges these young people face and the social ills that too often become roadblocks to their success. Most students enter performing one to three years below grade level and typically have experienced significant trauma. Yet SCSL students matriculate to high performing college prep schools, with college admission and graduation a very realistic prospect.
The Archdiocese of Chicago, the third largest in the United States, serves more than 2.2 million Catholics in 216 parishes in Cook County and Lake county, a geographic area of 1,411 square miles. The Archdiocese, pastored by Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, has more than 13,000 employees in its systems and ministries, including Catholic Charities, the region's largest nonprofit social service agency. The Archdiocese also has one of the country's largest seminaries. The Archdiocese's 150 elementary and secondary schools comprise one of the largest U.S. private school systems. Its schools have received 96 U.S. Department of Education Blue Ribbon Awards.
