Review Process

The administration will review the application once all of the above documentation has been submitted. To be considered for admission we look for students who are successful in their current academic environments; who conduct themselves in a manner fitting with the St. Benedict Catholic School behavioral standards; and whose parents/guardians are invested in the education process.

Principal Meeting

The school principal, Mrs. Lisa Oriti, will host scheduled tours with each applicant and family, during which you can ask questions and get an in-depth look at the opportunities a St. Benedict Catholic School education can offer your child. Please call the school office to schedule a tour.

Screening

Applicants for Grades 1 through 8 take a grade-level entrance assessment specifically designed to assess aptitude in Language Arts and Math.

Student Visit

Students applying for Grades 2 to 8 spend a day shadowing, however during the pandemic shadowing is currently postponed. 

Enrollment Decision

After the student has completed the above steps, the application will be evaluated and an enrollment decision will be made. As a Catholic school, our priority is to first select qualified candidates of the Catholic faith. It is possible that a student may be put on a waitlist for classes that are at or near capacity, and parish families have first priority in cases where class space is limited.

Registration

If your child is accepted, you will receive a packet of registration materials that must be completed and submitted to the school office, along with a $150 Technology Fee, to secure your space.
