About this position

About Our Academy

For more than 90 years, Immaculate Conception in Warren has been a place of learning, faith, and community. Since 1983, generations of families have helped build a school culture grounded in strong academics, cultural heritage, and a close partnership between home and school.
Invictus Classical Academy grows from these roots. What began as a private school community shaped by Ukrainian heritage and a commitment to character now serves the broader community as a tuition-free public charter school. This transition preserves the heart of the school while expanding access to more families.
Today, IC offers a classical curriculum centered on literature, history, mathematics, science, and the arts.
We honor tradition and community while preparing students for the future through rigorous academics and the formation of wisdom and virtue.
Rooted in history. Open to all. Shaping the leaders of tomorrow.
