Dear St. Monica Academy Families,
You know the school year is coming to a close when we start seeing the graduate profiles on our SMA social channels. Please take a moment and wish each graduate the very best for the next stage of their academic career by leaving a comment or reaction to the profiles. You will also notice there are several families getting a second profile. These are families that this year's graduate is their last child at SMA and we are bidding these families a very fond farewell. Please take the time to read their words of advice, reminisce about their favorite memories and add your good wishes.

Read "STEM Innovation from Roots to Robots at St. Monica Academy" in Chicago Parent
Have you heard about the great STEM programs at SMA? Read "STEM Innovation from Roots to Robots at St. Monica Academy" it Chicago Parent, here is an excerpt:
High on the wishlist for parents who want to prepare their children for a successful future: a rigorous curriculum and plenty of focus on the whole child. At St. Monica Academy, students from age 3 through grade eight engage in a faith-based education that offers a strong foundation, especially in highly sought-after STEM subjects.
In fact, at St. Monica Academy, the addition of the arts and religion transforms the science, technology, engineering and math of STEM into STREAM. “When I make my way out of the junior high school world where I teach, what I see amazes me,” says Karen Ronchi, Junior High Science teacher at St. Monica Academy. “Kindergartners create paper models of the earth revolving around the sun and the moon revolving around the earth. A kindergarten student even put two and two together to say that this must be how eclipses work. That blew my mind!”
