Medical Services
The health and well-being of our students is a priority. With parent approval, our residence director will schedule any medical appointments your child needs. We have cultivated relationships with many medical professionals including local doctors and nurses at Amberwell Health, dentists, orthodontists, optometrists, chiropractors, therapists, and pharmacists we know we can rely on to assist at any time.
Higher Education
In 1858, the sisters and monks of Mount St. Scholastica and St. Benedict’s Abbey started Benedictine College, a four-year college. We partner with Benedictine College to offer college credit courses and provide guidance and resources for our juniors and seniors as they embark on the college search process.
