Academics
A Commitment to Academic Excellence
Whether conducting experiments in state-of-the-art labs or engaging in lively classroom discussions, students at St. Sebastian's are immersed in an environment that inspires academic rigor.
With the guidance of extraordinarily talented and devoted educators, each boy is challenged to think deeply, work diligently, and achieve his highest academic goals—preparing him for college and beyond.
Balancing Rigor and SupportÂ
We believe that boys are happiest when they are engaged fully in meaningful, challenging work and when they are inspired and supported by peers and mentors. Our focused, liberal arts curriculum is centered on offering each student the most demanding and individualized academic program for him; our entire faculty is devoted to ensuring his success.
Depth, Mastery & Timeless Skills
St. Sebastian’s offers a classical, traditional curriculum in which students explore core disciplines in great depth. Our signature programs also provide focus and confidence in the timeless skills of writing, speaking, collaborating, and innovating.
“Our students gain admission to and succeed in the finest colleges and universities in the country. But our hopes and dreams for them transcend academic success: we want them to be honorable, courageous and virtuous men who will dedicate their lives in generous service to others.”
