About Society of G.K. Chesterton & Chesterton Schools Network

OUR MISSION The mission of the Society of G.K. Chesterton is to evangelize through education, inspiring people to live joyful, holy lives, with G.K. Chesterton as a model of lay spirituality. Through our publications, conferences, and educational initiatives, we share Chesterton’s joyful, evangelical witness with the world. Our apostolate operates the Chesterton Schools Network (CSN), the fastest-growing network of classical, Catholic high schools of its kind. Under the patronage of G.K. Chesterton, in partnership with families, and in faithful service to the Church, the CSN is forming a new generation of joyful leaders and saints, educated in the classical tradition and grounded in the truths of the Catholic faith. In just over a decade, the Network has expanded to over 100 member schools worldwide, with 70 schools in operation and 30+ in development. The Chesterton Society is seeking exceptional talent to help steward and grow this historic Catholic education renewal effort. OUR PATRON G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was one of the most influential Catholic thinkers of the modern era, known not only for his intellectual brilliance but for his joy, charity, and ability to witness to truth with humility. His work continues to inspire conversions to the Catholic faith and cultural renewal across Christian traditions. STRUCTURE The Society of G.K. Chesterton is a canonical private association of the Christian faithful established in the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.
