St. Benedict’s prepares young men to fulfill their potential as emotionally mature, morally responsible and well-educated young men. St. Benedict’s Prep is devoted to preparing boys in and around Newark to navigate this critical time of transition. At the core of our philosophy is a rich tradition of family, leadership and excellence. Operated by the Benedictine monks of Newark Abbey since 1868, St. Benedict’s offers a rigorous college preparatory curriculum that sharpens the mind, shapes the character and nourishes the spirit. Because many of our students have faced significant challenges related to chronic poverty and racism, St. Benedict’s emphasizes building a supportive community as much as academic excellence.
