[quote=Anonymous]The monks are wonderful. Truly caring and want the absolute best for every student, teacher, and staff member on the campus. It is their home and they welcome everyone to it. The Benedictines are an order of monks who are devoted to education. They actually have a 1,500 year history of running schools. St. Anselm himself was a scholar who was an adviser to kings and leaders all over the medieval world. They are devoted to hospitality (welcoming to all), humility (the adult isn't better than the child, just working to help the child grow), obedience (the world is bigger than just you and your desires), and of course poverty, chastity, and stability. SAAS is a great school for kids who want to learn, are bright and for whom easier schools generally come relatively easily to them. There are plenty of kids with well-balanced ADHD and things like outdoor/active time, extended time, lots of structure built in which helps all of the boys. However, a kid who doesn't want to work hard, learn a lot, and is smart won't likely be happy there.[/quote]
