In attempt to promote our character curriculum and a spirit of friendly competition throughout the school, all SSC students have been divided vertically across grade levels and assigned to four distinct “Houses.” Each House is named after a Brothers’ school on a different continent: St. Columba House (England), Cristo Rei House (Brazil), Cor Jesu House (Philippines), and St. Michel House (Cameroon). Students can earn points for their Houses by their academic performances, by displays of character, by taking part in various House activities and service projects, and by participating in and supporting various extracurricular and athletic activities. They can also lose points for failing to do all these things. Each student has already received a “House shirt” which will serve as his uniform for the various House competitions. This Friday, September 3, each of the Houses will gather for a second time to pray for and to discuss some of the traits of character for which “Men of Character” are known, to nominate House leadership, and to begin organizing themselves for this year’s House activities. Students may wear their House T-shirt along with their khaki pants, black belt, black socks, and black shoes this Friday, September 3. House totals are published each Monday on morning announcements after tallying the previous week’s activities. |

Well these and many other questions like this are answered through the power of math. And so if these questions and others like them cross your mind then you should check out the Math Club and see if it is right for you. There will be an introductory meeting of the Math Club, Mu Alpha Theta (Grades 10 – 12) or Math Counts (Grades 7 – 9), for students who are interested in participating in math competitions and application projects. This meeting is scheduled for 7:45 a.m. on Tuesday, August 31 in Mr. Roy’s Room, Room 252.

St. Stanislaus will offer a post-graduate resident year (13th year) of high school beginning with the 2010-2011 school year.
Program Overview
SSC’s Post Graduate Program will be available for male high school graduates who need another year in high school to prepare academically, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually for entrance to a major college or university. A SSC Post Graduate student will enroll as a full-time resident student and will follow a seven period school day. In the dormitory he will follow a typical “senior” resident student schedule and share a room with another post-graduate student.
With 13th year applicants having already attained a high school diploma, a post graduate student could create a course schedule that would meet his academic needs, interests and college requirements. In addition to enrolling into traditional SSC courses, such as Religion, English, Math, Science, and Social Studies, post graduate students will have the ability to take specialty courses with his college readiness in mind: ACT/SAT prep, resume writing, college essay writing, basic math skills, physical conditioning, etc.
After successful completion of his post-graduate year, a post-graduate student will receive a Certificate of Attendance from St. Stanislaus College.
The goal for the Post Graduate Program is to help students become better prepared to handle the expectations that come with admission to a four-year university. |
