Dormitories and School Residencies
The campus has three large, two-story, dormitories (St. Edmunds Dorm, John F. Kennedy Dorm and St. Benedict's Dorm). Together, they house 210 students along with faculty members (dorm parents) and their families. Students are assigned rooms and roommates based on age and grade level. The majority of the rooms are double occupancy rooms. Each dorm floor has a student lounge where students can relax, make food and watch television during their free time.
Dorm parents oversee dorm activities, the residential life curriculum and serve as an adult mentor for the students. Dorm parents are available to the students during the nighttime hours.
Each dorm floor has Resident Assistants (RA's) students, who are selected by the faculty to serve as mentors, role models, friends and floor monitors. All RA's go through a comprehensive training process and are overseen by a senior faculty member. These student leaders help the dorm parents maintain a positive, familial dorm environment.
