Lower School Look-Ahead



We would love for you to join us for Lower School Look-Ahead. Hear from Principal Hannah Van Why on Monday, November 9, 2026 at 8:45 A.M. in the Nave, immediately following Preschool drop-off where we’ll explore our curriculum, what a typical day looks like, how we nurture social-emotional growth and independence, and what changes as children transition from Preschool to Lower School.

Most importantly, we will share how the heart of St. B’s stays the same! The same love, warmth, and nurturing you know and love in Preschool are just as present in Lower School. Come see why Lower School at St. B’s is an experience you won’t want to miss!

Family Conferences & Stingers Unplugged Care

Family Conferences will take place on Thursday, October 29 and Friday, October 30, 2026. Please remember that Stingers Unplugged care will not be offered on either day.

Lost and Found

The Lost and Found on the Main Campus is getting full! Parents are welcome to come to the front office to look for any items that may be lost. There are coats, sweaters, water bottles, and other miscellaneous items that are looking for their home.

As a reminder, any items remaining at the end of the Month will be donated.

Futures take shape at St. Benedict’s in ways that last far beyond graduation. In this featured video, alumna Abbie Gould ’18 reflects on her journey from joining St. Benedict’s in kindergarten through graduating in eighth grade, where she built a strong foundation rooted in confidence, community, and curiosity. Her story is a powerful reminder of how a St. Benedict’s education continues to shape students long after they leave our campus.

Watch the video to celebrate her story.
