The adventure begins this Friday December 5th (delayed from the snow day) after school in room 226.

ReRun Donation Drive
Hey Saints!
St. Benedict, in partnership with all other WCDSB high schools, will be hosting a collection drive for used/new shoes and brand new socks to donate to our surrounding community.
The collection period will be the entire week of November 18th, and will be done out of the SAC office during both lunches. Please bring any old pairs of shoes that are in acceptable condition, and look into purchasing new socks, still in the package, to donate.
If our goal of 350 shoes and 150 pairs of socks is reached, our school will earn an additional civvies day!
Parents of our community, we are calling on all of you to help us; clean out your closets whilst supporting a greater cause.
