St. Ethelreda School

St. Ethelreda School consistently ranks in the top 10% of 175 elementary schools in Chicago. Located in the Auburn Gresham community, it’s leaders have been nationally recognized for the school’s unique and quality programs, including that 100% of 8th graders are consistently accepted into their top choice high school and their Chess team has players ranked in the top 100 in the country.

St. Ethelreda is trying to keep up with the demand of parents flocking from CPS to their school last year and now. With a $60,000 grant, 20 former CPS students, all of whom can give chess a try, will be enrolled shortly.
