Field Day was a success!
It was a day full of running, laughter, and fun. The kids had a great time, and the parachute and tug of war activities were a huge hit!
A big thank you to Mr. Marcus and all the parent volunteers who make this special day possible every year. We appreciate your time, energy, and support!

Happy Summer Break, St. Ben’s!

Medical Update: We are happy to report that Marcus had a successful surgery yesterday. He will likely remain in ICU for the rest of the week. Please keep those prayers coming as he continues to recover.

We are reaching out in Faith to our St. Benedict family asking for prayers.

Mr. Marcus (our PE teacher) was seen in the emergency room on Friday afternoon, where they discovered a tumor on his brain.

He was admitted immediately and kept over the weekend in ICU.

He will be undergoing two surgeries. The first will be done Monday afternoon and second is scheduled for Tuesday morning.

We are asking for everyone to lift Marcus up in prayer through this process.

He is being surrounded and supported by his family and friends and is in good spirits. But what he is about to face is nothing light.

We will not know the extent to what it is, or what the recovery period will look like for several days.

We want to ask for continued prayers of healing, comfort and peace for him and our family.

Mr. Marcus is one incredibly strong person, with a positive outlook and mindset on life itself, and he’s keeping this same attitude through all of this.

Thank you to our St. Benedict Family for keeping us all in your thoughts and Prayers.
❤️

Our 4th graders recently completed their Saint Reports! After thoughtfully selecting a saint whose life and virtues best represented them, students researched and presented their findings. We learned about inspiring saints such as St. Benedict, Mother Theresa, St. David and many others, discovering how their faith, courage, and service continue to inspire us today. We are so proud of our students' hard work and thoughtful reflections!

The Center for Wooden Boats welcomed our kindergarteners for a wonderful hands-on experience! They had the opportunity to create and decorate their very own wooden boats using recycled materials. They also got to sail a boat, making it a truly memorable adventure.
A special thanks to one of our kindergarten moms for capturing these amazing photos!
