Why Christian Brothers School
Christian Brothers School is intentionally unique. It is the only local Catholic school with programs on two campuses including a co-educational elementary program and a gender-separate middle school program. The academic program is rigorous and grade-level accelerated from pre-kindergarten through seventh grade. The extracurricular program is robust offering opportunities in athletics, the arts, service, and academics. CBS students learn to be leaders among their peers as they enjoy participating in numerous activities. With relationships as a hallmark of the CBS program, students and families make friends for life. Consequently, the CBS graduate is not only prepared for a challenging secondary environment, he/she is ready to excel both in and out of the high school classroom.
