Immaculate Conception Grade School, the first Catholic school in Elmhurst, was founded in 1900 and currently serves children in grades Pre-K 3 through 8th. As an educational ministry of Immaculate Conception Parish, we partner with parents to prepare students for lives as Catholic leaders. As Christians empowered by the Holy Spirit, we focus on formation through prayer, message, concern, and service to community. We teach students to live a lives that embody these values, are centered in Christ, and strive for their greatest academic potential. They will experience a world around them rich in God's love.

We seek to develop habits of prayer and worship, as well as academic excellence.
As educators, we strive to provide our students with an enriching Christian background that focuses on the respect and dignity of all human beings.
Our goal is to develop students who are deeply committed to acts of service in their community, as well as the entire world.
