Catalyst Maria's parking lot procedures will return to the normal flow of traffic effective today (Monday 9/21/15).
Families dropping-off and picking-up scholars will enter the parking lot from Marquette and will exit on 68th Street.
If you have any questions, please contact the Catalyst Maria Main Office at (773) 993-1770. Thank you for your patience and flexibility during this construction.
Due to the excessive heat forecasted for Wednesday September 2, 2015-Friday September 5, 2015, Catalyst Maria building temperatures may reach excessive temperatures in the afternoons that are uncomfortable for classroom instruction even with implementation of appropriate mitigation strategies.
Catalyst Maria will dismiss K-12 scholars at 1:00 PM Wednesday, Thursday and Friday September 2, 2015- September 4, 2015.
Please plan to pick up your scholar at 1:00 PM on each of these days. If you have any questions, please contact the Catalyst Maria Main Office at 773-993-1770.

Last week, several Catalyst Maria parents met with state legislators to communicate the impact that the Catalyst Maria community is having on their scholars and families! This visit consisted of several meetings with State Senators and Representatives, and was coordinated with Catalyst partner organization INCS (Illinois Network of Charter Schools). Check out a picture of parents visiting with Representative Dan Burke below, which links to the INCS website! Additionally, INCS Lobby Day is right around the corner, with thousands of charter school scholars, parents, staff, and supporters visiting the Capitol on May 21, 2015!
On April 21st the families of the 24 One Goal scholars met with Ms. Fawaz for the first parent night. At this meeting they celebrated their acceptance into One Goal, learned about the goals of the three year program, and filled out the necessary paperwork for enrollment – the final step is solidifying Catalyst Maria’s first One Goal cohort. These scholars made their commitments to 100% graduation from college with 100% full-tuition scholarships, with the help of the One Goal program- congratulations to the scholars and the CM community!
