At Benet Academy, there is a lot of school spirit and student involvement, which is very good. Most teachers are there to help students and they usually offer extra help in most cases. The school is older, so the facilities are older and parts of the school had to be renovated. Going to Benet is pricey, but for the most part it is worth it.

We have been a Benet Academy family since my husband attended there over 30 years ago. The school has been a wonderful learning environment for our kids. The academics are challenging, teachers are supportive of the students learning and engage them to succeed. We are grateful to our Benet Academy family.

This school has a way of making students feel unwelcome and judged for being different. Proof? Benet Academy fired the girls lacrosse coach for being gay. One could argue that it is a Catholic school and they are allowed to do that, but this is a highly qualified COACH (not a teacher) of a sport no...
