Benedictine High School
Our "Brother" School
Although Saint Gertrude High School is an all girls school,
there is a building full of young men
just down the street. School efforts are combined in several areas of
student
life:
Sponsors
Each senior Sponsoring Officer
from Benedictine's Corps of
Cadets chooses one Saint Gertrude student from the senior or junior
class to be his sponsor at special corps events such as Sponsors
Day,
Sponsors Ball, and several drill competitions in which the young men
compete.
Stuart Avenue Players
The young men are encouraged
to join this Saint Gertrude/Benedictine
Drama Club
and to audition and participate in the Fall Musical and Spring Play.
Robotics Club
This Benedictine High School
Club encourages
Saint Gertrude students
to join and participate in the Robotics competitions.
Field Hockey Homecoming
This fall
event takes place during a Field Hockey game.
The Saint Gertrude field hockey team plays the boys
(in field hockey
uniforms, skirts and all) in a fun filled game. A vote is held at
Saint Gertrude to
chose Benedictine students as Senior, Junior, Sophomore, and Freshmen
Princes.
The crowning of the King takes place at half time.
Homecoming
Benedictine plays a homecoming football
game and a vote is held
at Benedictine High School to choose Senior, Junior, Sophomore and
Freshmen
princesses from the Saint Gertrude nominees. A senior princess is
crowned queen
during half time.
All Saint Gertrude and Benedictine students are
welcome at dances at both
schools. Click here to go to see the dance schedule
