Discipline

All of our teachers and dormfathers are required to read Don Bosco’s writings on the Preventive System, for our discipline is formed in emulation of the saint who held that love and prevention are better motives to good discipline than fear and punishment. Thus, we prevent wrongdoing by good supervision and clearly defined rules and standards of behavior. When infractions do occur, discipline is always handled on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the particular circumstances. We strive to make an orderly, safe, and happy home-away-from-home for our boys. Our rules are few and sensible, with the good of the community and the individual in mind.
