School Notes Overview: |
Josephinum Academy is a multicultural Catholic college preparatory school empowering young women of Chicago to become confident, faith-filled leaders. At first, the Josephinum challenge to “Exceed Your Expectations” puzzles some new students. But in small ways every day, in history class and on the softball field, students progressively learn that they have the power to effect change in their lives. After four years of intellectual, spiritual, and personal growth sponsored by a supportive faculty, staff, and administration, Josephinum graduates go out into the work, multicultural agents of social change with a strong sense of purpose and determination.
