St. Benedict School is fortunate to have been chosen as one of more than 300 schools, across seven archdioceses and dioceses, participating in the Catholic Alumni Partnership (CAP). CAP is a groundbreaking initiative that is enabling us to reconnect with and reengage our alumni. In the Archdiocese of New York, we are one of 50 schools participating in a pilot program. St. Benedict School is working closely with CAP staff to identify our alumni and create opportunities for those individuals to once again become active members of our school community.

We Need Your Help
In January, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a resolution honoring the contributions of Catholic schools to the nation - recognizing the academic and moral excellence instilled in students and congratulating schools for contributing to a brighter, stronger future for the country. We need your help in ensuring that St. Benedict School remains a viable alternative to families who feel the same way.
Today, we are struggling to keep tuition levels stable while costs continue to increase.
· On average, tuition in the Archdiocese of New York’s elementary schools covers only 65% of student costs. We receive approximately $300 a student (or 6%) from government sources. The balance must be funded by our supporters.

News
In a recent issue of the Catholic New York, Dr. Timothy McNiff, Superintendent of Schools for the Archdiocese of New York said, “The seven archdioceses and dioceses participating in the Catholic Alumni Partnership are appreciative of this new and innovative opportunity to help our Catholic elementary schools meet the increasing financial demands they encounter. By providing the resources for schools to reconnect with their graduates, our schools will be better positioned to establish an ongoing relationship with their alumni. In return, I am confident those graduates will embrace their former school community that provided a foundation of life success for them. They will be helping to ensure that foundation will be present for other young people.”
