What Makes You Special?
At our school, everyone does everything. Athletes sing in the choir, scholars ride unicycles, city kids clean pig pens, country kids learn to tie a Windsor knot.

What Is Your Daily Schedule?
The day opens with the singing of Lauds. After breakfast and morning chores, the boys devote themselves to classes. Later in the morning the students attend Holy Mass, followed by lunch, recreation, and afternoon classes.

Why an All-Boys Boarding School?
Young men have a strong desire to test their boundaries. They long to enter the world of men, but they are required to go to school.

What About Your Academics?
Our course of studies is demanding, but we wish for good hearts as much as good minds. Students who are willing to work with good spirit and diligence will succeed.

What About Technology?
Side by side with what we give students is what we refuse to give them, or rather, our firm belief that in order to make mental and physical room for the good, we must remove the distractions of technology.

“There is no doubt as to the need for havens like this school. The faculty of this school is on the front lines of a war over culture itself. My sincere prayer is that this place and this tradition will continue.”

“Education is not the acquisition of marketable skills, or self-improvement, culture, personal fulfillment or even knowledge—though these benefits normally occur; but, essentially, it is a call to something higher than ourselves…” — John Senior
