Did the Sisters of St. Joseph imagine back in 1899 when they arrived in La Grange that they’d be starting a legacy? Fourteen students in a remodeled house – that’s how Nazareth Academy began. Right here in La Grange Park, this institution has been shaping minds and fostering spirits for over a century. Think about it – from a humble six-room house to the sprawling campus you see today, Nazareth Academy has grown alongside the community. By the way, did you know that Nazareth Academy didn’t initially call this location home? Their first school building was erected in 1901, and they even had a boarding option for students until 1963. It was in 1974 that they moved to this location, expanding their reach and becoming a coeducational institution a few years later. Nazareth Academy is more than just academics, they’re known for their athletic prowess, consistently ranking among the top in state championships. Football, baseball, basketball – you name it, they’ve excelled in it. The spirit of the Roadrunners, their mascot, is certainly alive and kicking within those hallowed halls. As you walk through those doors, remember you’re stepping into more than just a school. You’re stepping into a story 124 years in the making, a testament to the power of education and community spirit.
