THE CKA DIFFERENCE
Inspired by Wisdom. Prepared for Greatness.
Parents and guardians choose Cardinal Kung Academy for something rare: a joyful Catholic community, classical learning, and deep formation of mind, character, and soul.
Why Choose Cardinal Kung Academy?
Faith First: Our Catholic faith is not a feature. It is the foundation, informing every subject, every decision, and every day. Learn more about Faith & Service at CKA.
Timeless Intellectual and Moral Formation: Our classical education teaches students to think deeply, speak clearly, and live purposefully, drawing on the Church’s Tradition, the Great Books, and enduring truths. With a 1:5 teacher-to-student ratio, students receive personalized instruction, close mentoring, and feedback tailored to their individual strengths and needs. Learn more about our Classical Education.
A Community Fully Alive: Rooted in shared traditions, like Mass, service, retreats, and parent gatherings, our students and families grow together in a joyful, close‑knit community. To keep this vibrant experience accessible, tuition is intentionally set below that of many area Catholic schools, with additional assistance available for qualifying families. Learn more about our Tuition & Financial Aid.
Prepared for Mission: We don’t just prepare students for college. We help them discover who God made them to be and live that call with confidence and love. Our graduates thrive at colleges and universities across the country and step into their vocations with purpose. Learn how CKA prepares students to thrive after graduation.
Fearlessly Different: Joyfully and unapologetically countercultural, we shape students to stand firm in truth rather than blend in. CKA is the only Catholic Classical school of its kind in Fairfield County, and families travel from New York and New Jersey to attend. Learn more about our Mission & Virtues.
