I'm a graduate of St. Benedict's and have my son attending now. We came from a different private school, and I can say that it doesn't compare to St.Benedict's in regards to positive, effective discipline, structure and academics. They have school-run sports activities on Sat mornings for grades 1-8

I have 2 of my children in St. Benedict....the only reason my 3rd child is not in the school, is because he's 2. My oldest just started 4th grade and my middle just started 1st grade....they have both been in the school since pre-k. Some of the teachers are not quite as 'maternal' as I think they

St. Benedic't school is an excellent Catholic school ! My oldest daughter has been a student there for five years. My son is currently in his second year.

My kids both go to this school, due to convenience. I also believe that the main concern is fundraising. When they have their first meeting at the beginning of the school year, that is the first and main thing that is discussed. Tuition is raised every single year and there is nothing new that the

I belive this school is absolutely awful. The principal is nice, but most of the teachers are ridiculous. They don't know how to teach, and they are not helping the students that are failing, they just keep moving foward. I think that St. Benedicts is an awful choice in a school, and thankfully my daughter

St. Benedict's is absolutely awful. The material taught in science class is factually incorrect (I'm not even talking about evolution because I'm not sure if they teach it, just simple concepts like gravity). Students aren't encouraged to think for themselves or be critical, the focus is simply on

My daughter attended pre-school and I found it to be so overcrowded . Her class was also in the basement which I found to be a fire hazard.. I asked several times to be a lunch mother so I can do my volunteer hours, even when my son attended, to no avail.. I realized later on if you are not in the click

SBS is a great school. My daughter who is now in high school is doing math that was done in the 7th grade at SBS. The kids are well ahead of where they should be academically. Two issues that must be addressed are the lack of a foreign language and SBS is behind in technology.
