      The monks truly care about their kids and do everything they can to push their kids to their maximum potential. This school more than prepares their students for their next step. They work to make the students' next school seem easy. Not only are they constantly working to improve education, they also work to form well rounded men who have opportunities to explore many different hobbies from stainglass and wood working to cross country and swimming. Not only does subiaco excel in education, it also molds boys into gentlemen. I have met many students and each were more than polite and respectful to all of my family. Subiaco has become a second home and I can't wait to send my son there.

      Subiaco was a great place for me to grow up. It gave me a strong educational foundation, allowing me to have my choice of top physics programs for college. The international students gave me an opportunity to understand other cultures first-hand. The Benedictine monks provided a strong faith foundation. More importantly, Subiaco provided a lifelong community with their vibrant alumni association. Every year, alumni come together for a grand reunion, and we have an opportunity to stay involved with the school.
      The foundation Subiaco offers is one far greater than current students can realize. As the young Subi-men graduate and move into their careers, they'll begin to understand what they've been given. As they gain experience and move around the world, the stable foundation offered by Subiaco will pay for itself a thousandfold. Subiaco Academy is an opportunity parents can't afford to let their sons miss.
