Curriculum

Our Academic Program

Our academic program provides our students with a challenging curriculum that includes a variety of Advanced Placement and honors-level courses with smaller classes allowing for more individualized instruction. We challenge Cadets to extend their capacities and develop knowledge, skills, integrity, and awareness of themselves and others in the community.

Our students are challenged every day to learn not only more about the world around them, but about the person God is calling them to be. Our strong Catholic identity, coupled with a philosophy of education as the formation of young men, is what makes us different from every other school.

We invite you to explore our curriculum below to see if a Benedictine education is right for you.

Dr. Jennifer Bigelow, BSoR Academic Dean

Our students thrive at Benedictine College Preparatory because of the effective partnership between teachers and their parents. Our teachers are committed to excellence in education, best practices in instruction, and infusing Catholic identity into the curriculum and lessons. Our students leave Benedictine College Preparatory well-prepared for life after high school as they have developed excellent critical thinking skills, the ability to advocate for themselves, and acquired deep knowledge.
