Founded in 1950, St. Monica School was awarded academy status to become St. Monica Academy in August 2007. This designation by the Archdiocese of Chicago recognizes a ground-breaking educational initiative by St. Monica Academy and the world-renowned Chicago Botanic Garden, who have partnered to create Student Environmental Education and Development Studies (SEEDS).

St. Monica Academy students thrive in a Catholic educational setting that fosters creativity, instills strong moral values, encourages independent thinking and prepares them to claim their place as stewards of God's creation.
