Missing Alumni
We work hard to stay connected with our alumni through mailings, phone and emails. We want to know and celebrate what our alumni are doing and want to keep them informed of what is happening at St. Benedict Preparatory.

However, we have lost touch with a number of alumni. These alumni do not receive anything from us including invitations to special events such as reunions.  If you have any updated contact info for these alumni, please contact Mrs. Pat Woodhouse in our Mission Advancement Office at pwoodhouse@stbenedict.com.

Class Reps Wanted
Staying in touch with our alumni is a vital part of the St. Ben community and we need your help!  Please consider becoming a Class Rep for your graduation year.  Responsibility is minimal-you already keep in touch with many of your friends, just let the Alumni Office know what's happening.  Please contact Mrs. Kate Schock-Williams at kwilliams@stbenedict.com for more information, to add yourself, or even recommend a classmate.

2010-11 Annual Fund Alumni Update

We are happy to report that once again our alumni have continued to stay true to the traditions of the past set by the pioneer class of 1954 which designated contributions from alumni would go to fund scholarships for needy families.  Our Annual Fund assists us to fund the tuition assistance required to allow access to many deserving young men and women seeking a quality Catholic High School education here at St. Ben's.

We hope you will respond generously to the appeal contained in the most recent Alumni Newsletter.

Thank you in advance and in the words of our founder Monsignor Fasnacht: “Let’s go St. Ben’s”!!
