Our 8th grade scholars are keeping their eyes on the future as they explore local high schools and prepare for graduation. Earlier this week, scholars and families had the opportunity to tour Prosser Career Academy and learn about their incredible programs!

We are a family of schools that helps low-income, at-risk families succeed in school, the workplace, and life.
About us
Christopher House's family of schools provides low-income children and their parents with high-quality education programs that prepare them for success in school, the workplace, and life. Christopher House’s unique, proven model of education, from birth through high school, levels the playing field for low-income children. We partner with families to provide a continuum of schools serving infant, preschool, elementary, high school, and adult students, as well as support services that create stable, self-sufficient families. Our centers are nationally renowned and have earned the highest ratings in the City of Chicago. High standards and a commitment to continuous quality improvement are the driving force behind all of our work. We group our programs into four schools: Infant and Pre-School, Elementary School, After-School, and Parent School. We focus on each child’s overall growth and development which has a positive, measurable impact on their ability to succeed. Understanding that educating the child is not enough, we also provide supportive services to the entire family that help build stability and self-sufficiency. We serve over 5,000 children and family members every year through our five sites on Chicago’s north and west sides.
