Become the Man the World Needs You to Be
Chaminade College Preparatory School educates young men, grades 6–12, in the Catholic Marianist tradition. Chaminade’s intention is to ensure that every young man who passes through its doors is able to achieve the balance between school life and play. The school motto is ESTO VIR, “Be a Man,” and it is a true journey from boyhood to manhood that includes spiritual, educational, and social development.
As a school for boys, Chaminade is created from the perspective of how young men learn, build relationships, and interact with the world. The school’s mission is to cultivate students' inherent skills, gifts, and talents while realizing their potential as men. This is accomplished through a focus on academics, formation of character, and athletics and activities.
Chaminade provides a modern, academically challenging curriculum using personalized instruction. Classrooms, averaging 17 students, are student-centered and address multiple learning styles. The alternating block schedule allows for longer classroom experiences for debates, labs, and deeper academic engagement.
