Since it’s founding, Hales Franciscan High School has celebrated African-American heritage and endeavored to instill cultural pride. The school continues to be the only historically African-American, all-male, Catholic college preparatory school in the state of Illinois and one of three such institutions in the nation. The School is a not-for-profit independent school, fully accredited by the North Central Association and certified by the Illinois State Board of Education. Hales Franciscan was established to carry on the mission of educating young, African-American males at a time when there were few opportunities for them to receive a quality, private education. Hales is dedicated to imparting Christian values in the Catholic and Franciscan traditions. Consequently, the school is committed to instilling moral, and ethical ideals while helping students fulfill their academic potential in a safe, disciplined and nurturing environment.
