The Catherine Cook School is a Chicago independent preparatory school serving preschool through eighth grade. We are an inclusive learning community dedicated to inspiring personal excellence and educating children for life.
Since 1975, our committed administrators and teachers have worked closely with each student to identify and foster strengths, ignite imagination, encourage discovery and teach children how to learn and think. Our academic programs focus on age-appropriate experiential learning and independent thinking. Using a collaborative approach, students, parents, teachers and administrators enrich the individual attention each child receives. We also pursue an agenda of social responsibility by emphasizing the importance of service learning and issues of equity and justice.
