| | Donate to the Faculty & Staff Gift Fund | | |
As we enter this season of thanks, let’s come together to celebrate our amazing teachers and staff who make our school such a special place.
Your contribution will go toward a monetary holiday gift for every member of our dedicated faculty and staff. It’s a heartfelt way to show how much they’re appreciated.
We suggest a donation of $50 per student, but every amount, big or small, makes a difference.
Join us in spreading holiday cheer and gratitude. Click below to give today!

Inclement Weather Communication
We want to remind families how we’ll share updates in case of inclement weather. If the weather may impact the school day, St. Benedict’s will notify you through email, social media, stbs.org, local news outlets, and PikMyKid.
You can expect an evening update if forecasts look concerning, and a morning update if conditions change overnight.
Thank you for staying connected and prepared!

Thanksgiving Break with Stingers Unplugged
Need care for your child on Monday and Tuesday, November 24-25, 2025? Register for Thanksgiving Break Stingers Unplugged by November 21, 2025. Care runs from 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. on both days, with half-day, one day, and two day options available. Registration is required for all students who attend regardless of aftercare registration.
This Friday, November 21, 2025 is early dismissal, and Stingers Unplugged will be available from dismissal until 4:00 P.M.
If your child is normally in Friday aftercare, no action is needed. If your student is not, please email stingerssquad@stbs.org and copy your child’s teacher to let us know. Please note that all students must be picked up by 4:00 P.M. (even if you are registered for 6:00 P.M. aftercare pickup on normal Fridays).

Support St. Jude's Food Bank
As part of St. Benedict’s commitment to serving others, parishioners collect food donations for St. Jude’s Episcopal Church Food Bank. St. Jude’s has shared a list of their most-needed items—see the Donations Wish List below.
St. B’s parents can join this effort by bringing items to Chapel and placing them in the Narthex drop-off box. Together, we can share Christ’s love and make a difference. For more information, contact Greg Stevens at gregorylstevens@gmail.com.

Request for Clothing Donations!
Stingers Squad is in need of extra clothing, particularly pants, to use when children have restroom accidents. Our stock of extra pants is depleted, and we would welcome any pants size 2T or above that your child has outgrown and you would like to donate! Please drop them off at the Stingers Squad door, or send them in a labeled bag at drop off.
Please Note: We cannot accept used underwear.
