St. Procopius Elementary School

With over 85% of their families from native Spanish speaking homes, this small Catholic school serving students in the Chinatown and South Loop neighborhoods is a dual language school that steadily brings students to bilingual fluency. St. Procopius has seen steady student growth thanks to a focus on proven curricula, and will be adding 40 new students with its $200,000 Chicago STOP Award Rescue Grant. These new grant funds will support student academic and emotional development, as well as provide the supports and personnel necessary for St. Procopius students to flourish.
