Congratulations to our 2023-2024 SBS Spelling Bee Participants. The top two spellers from 4th-7th grade will be given the opportunity to compete in the New Orleans Spelling Bee at Dillard University. Great job to all of our spelling scholars! We are so proud of you!

One of our most cherished traditions at St. Benilde Schools is our 7th grade t-shirt delivery. Each year, our seventh grade class designs a custom shirt for their grade level. But the most exciting aspect about this long, time-honored tradition is who delivers their T-shirts to them: their Pre-K4 buddies. We are so excited for our seventh graders to represent St. Benilde in their new class shirts.

Last week, our little Pre-K3, Pre-K4, and Kindergarten students celebrated their annual fall festival, where educational games became the playground for laughter and growth. As smiles lit up their faces, the event turned into a heartwarming blend of fun and learning, making each moment a cherished step in their educational journey. Thank you to all of the parents and teachers who helped to make this event possible!

Sparks of curiosity and hands-on learning ignited in our 6th grade classroom as students delved into the world of electronics, crafting parallel circuits that lit up with diodes and LEDs. From batteries to DC power sources and the magic of snap circuits, our young engineers are embracing the challenge, sparking creativity and learning, one circuit at a time!

Congratulations to our St. Benilde School Junior Girls' Volleyball Team, who wrapped up their season this past Wednesday. We are incredibly proud of your determination, teamwork and spirit. Well done!

October is the month of the Most Holy Rosary. To celebrate, our St. Benilde School students created a vibrant living rosary on the blacktop, where we prayed together with our buddies and meditated on events in the life of Jesus.

October 4th is the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi. St. Benilde celebrated the day with a blessing of the animals. St. Benilde families and friends brought their pets to be blessed by Father Matthew. Our youngest students had their stuffed animals blessed too!

Our first Rooted Night on Sunday, September 10 was a great success thanks to the hard work and dedication of MANY volunteers. We had approximately 250 people in attendance!
