Student Life
Encountering Christ
Catholicism is central to our mission. For this reason, every school day begins with Mass. We teach theology out of the Bible, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and papal documents. Other important ways we live the faith include annual pilgrimages and retreats, modest and wholesome extracurricular activities, and sacred art and crucifixes adorn the halls and the classrooms.

The CANU Prayer Book
Students at CANU also learn how to enter deeply into the prayer of the Mass and many of the other rich prayers to be found in the Catholic Tradition, and they are provided with further resources to continue developing a personal relationship with our Lord. Explore how--and feel free to use in your own prayer life--with the CANU Prayer Book.
Prayer Requests
Do you have a prayer request? Submit it here and it will be added to our weekly community prayer intentions, prayed for by our students and families.
House System
Chesterton Academy’s House system is drawn from the 1,000 year-old tradition of Christian education exemplified in the colleges at Oxford and Cambridge. The Houses provide real, tangible community within the larger school, giving students the opportunity to take ownership, fulfill the call to leadership, experience joy and belonging, and to cultivate the ideal conditions for virtue. Each House has one or more faculty advisors, student leaders, and parent liaisons. House members compete together, build each other up in virtue, and share time and joy.
Clubs, Activities, & Sports
As a start-up school, we are in the process of building club and sport offerings. Our families are a major driver of this: we support any mission-aligned activities that students and parents are interested in being involved in and helping to support. Contact us at info@ChestertonUtah.com if you are interested in partnering with us to provide a club or sport at CANU!
