History
Champagnat Catholic School was founded by Dr. Reinaldo and Mrs. Maria I. Alonso at a time in the history of Miami when there was a need to serve immigrant families moving to Miami. Champagnat came in to strengthen the religious, the civic and patriotic roots of children coming in from Cuba and Central and South America.
Champagnat Catholic School started under the auspices of the Marist Brothers due to Dr. Alonso's previous years as principal of the Champagnat elementary in La Vibora, Cuba and later on the Champagnat high school in Cienfuegos, Cuba. The first Champagnat Catholic School opened its classroom doors on September 8, 1968, at the corner of 29th Avenue and 7th Street SW in Miami with 123 students. In 1973 the school opened the doors to a second campus in Hialeah.
The school is accredited by the National Independent Private Schools Association (NIPSA), National Council of Private Schools Association (NCPSA), Council of Bilingual Schools (COBIS).
There are also some other educative schools called "Champagnat". One of the biggest is based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
