What characteristics distinguish St. Sebastians from other schools?
St. Sebastian’s draws its identity from both the Independent and the Catholic School traditions, fostering an environment where faith and reason join forces in the search for truth. While smaller than most Catholic and parochial schools, both in total enrollment (350) and average class size (11), the School is committed to providing an academic environment where Gospel values play a leading role in understanding the truth about God’s plan for us. As an Independent School, St. Sebastian’s makes a strong commitment to pursuing the highest level of intellectual inquiry and academic rigor. All students gain admission to four-year colleges and universities. All students are afforded the opportunity to participate in competitive athletics and first-rate art programs. No other boys’ school in New England embraces both traditions as wholeheartedly.
