School Notes:

  • St. Jude Catholic School is the educational center of our faith community. We the faculty, staff, parents and students realize the importance of responding to God's call for us to love Him with our whole hearts, and to love our neighbor as ourselves. We choose to do this by continuously refining and integrating Catholic values, not only in the academic setting but throughout our lives in both our Parish and the community-at-large.

School Reviews:

  • Recommended May 02,2013 - We enrolled our children at St. Jude''s since we moved to New Lenox from Chicago nearly 8 years ago. . .it was the best decision we ever made. Our children love to go to school and they are learning at an accelerated rate. Now with the 3-and-4-year-old preschool program the school is even more robust and has a great feeder program.*-Posted by Parent *
