Detailed Information

Chesterton Academy is a joyful, rigorous Catholic high school where teenagers rediscover wonder, friendship, and the freedom of an unhurried mind.

About us: Chesterton Academy of Saint Margaret Clitherow is a new classical Catholic high school in the Knoxville area, part of the national Chesterton Schools Network of more than 60 schools across North America. We offer a four-year integrated curriculum grounded in the great books, Latin, logic, theology, fine arts, and the natural sciences.  We teach these subjects the way the human mind actually learns, with discussion, beauty, and meaning at the center.

What makes Chesterton different? Our students don’t carry phones during the school day. They sing, sketch, debate, and read real books together. They put on plays, hike, paint, and pray. They graduate as confident young adults who can think clearly, write well, defend their faith, and step into any college or vocation with their humanity intact.

We welcome families from all backgrounds, who want a high school that takes both faith and intellect seriously. Tours and shadow days are available year-round.

Ages served: Grades 9–12

Areas served: Knoxville, Oak Ridge, Farragut, Maryville, Lenoir City, and surrounding communities

Over 20 years ago, I moved to Knoxville and fell in love with the city that has now truly become my home. Shortly after moving here, I married my college sweetheart, and when not working we set out to travel as much as we could. After working as a financial manager for six years, I welcomed my first son in 2010 and began a journey as a stay-at-home mom. Two years later we added another baby boy to make us a family of four. In June 2016, we welcomed our third son. I founded Knoxville Moms in November 2013 which began my career as a work-from-home mom, and it grew to the expansion of Chattanooga Moms in March 2016. We welcomed our first girl in November 2017 making us a family of six. In June 2021, I became the co-owner of the Atlanta Mom website, and in March 2022 I became the owner of the Nashville Moms parenting website. When I'm not carpooling the kids to sports and activities, you can find me enjoying a cup of coffee, reading a good book, and dreaming about my toes in the sand. I enjoy meeting new people and connecting the moms of Knoxville, Chattanooga, Atlanta, and Nashville.
