4/25/2025
My experience with beginning at bendicts since 9th grade year I was trying my best to adjust to different people and cultures I enjoyed the sports that other school doesn't have in my community like fencing and field hockey .My worst experiences was freshman year camping out door was very different for me but I adjust and really looking forward to better things because of the experiences I had at school
11/2/2024
My overall experience going to Saint Benedict's has been a roller coaster of emotions. It's not like any regular high school or not like the high school dream I was expecting. We go on a 50 mile hike, we get in the water for a month, we go in the woods and hike more each year. Going to Benedict's has taught me responsibility and good communication skills. It has also showed me to be more interactive.
10/28/2024
The experience at Saint Benedict is an interesting one full of hardships but good memories. Benedicts will make you work harder than the rest and put you through multiple adversities as a student and adult but it's memorable as you become a part of a community and a family what I would like to see change is the quality of the food

I cannot say enough good things about St. Benedict's. (My son is part of the class of 2016.) While their academic program is lacking in terms of technology, they more than make up for that in teaching young men to think for themselves. They take these boys from boyhood to manhood and teach them not...
