We are a classical, Christian School that meets at College Church in downtown Wheaton, Illinois, in the western suburbs of Chicago. We are located at the corner of Seminary and Washington Streets, right across from Wheaton College.
Clapham School was conceived in 2005 to meet a felt need for an academically rigorous and distinctively Christian school in the Chicago suburbs. Interested families began discussing plans for the school in late 2005, and began praying together weekly to seek God's guidance in that effort. Our formal journey began in the fall of 2006 with 23 students enrolled. For the 2008–09 school year, we have 67 students enrolled in Pre-Kindergarten through 6th grade, with plans to launch middle school in 2009-10.
Our Vision
To Propel Students for a Life of Service to Christ
Understand that it is God's Truth that leads to Life (Veritas Pro Vita)
Live this out by serving God and confidently engaging the world for Christ
As for literature - to introduce children to literature is to install them in a very rich and glorious kingdom, to bring a continual holiday to their doors, to lay before them a feast exquisitely served. - Charlotte Mason
