I love Benet! It is a place that is focused on academics and athletics, but it is also a place full of awesome people and teachers who genuinely care about the students. While the work load can be overwhelming and sometimes very stressful, it is honestly a place that follows the rule "work hard play hard". For every hard or challenging part that Benet has to offer, there is 5 more extracurricular activities or clubs to enjoy yourself in. I honestly have really loved having such a tight knit community of hard working and fun-loving people. Go Redwings baby :D
Benet gives a fine education. However, in order to do so it breaks their students mental health and destroys their self-esteem. The professors are often too intelligent to adequately understand how to teach their students. This leads to unrealistically high standards and self-taught students riddled with anxiety who feel they must work themselves until they are depressed, anxious, sleep-deprived, and struggling to balance family, fun, and school. In addition, some professors were just went on to belittle their students. I can't tell you how many mental breakdowns I witnessed during my four years from my own peers. I went there. My education was fine, but I would never recommend.
Benet Academy is a brilliant Catholic private school located in Lisle. The environment is somewhat secluded which makes any noise that could come from any big roads, eliminated. The teachers are dedicated to their craft and provide a wonderful college-ready education. Any young Catholic looking for a career in athletics, theatre or academics such as mathematics and science are on their way to a wonderful launching point to their careers. In addition they have provided a safe alternative for preventing Coronavirus when students will return to school. Though it could use a few improvements, the faculty and staff are working hard to adapt and provide careful changes.
