For more than a century, parents have chosen St. Christopher’s to educate their sons because we know boys. What does that mean? It means we have a deep understanding of how they play, how they think, how they learn—and how these things make them fundamentally different from girls. We know that for boys, movement maintains focus. Humor builds relationships. A difficult challenge sparks deeper engagement. Here, boys are celebrated and loved by a faculty committed to bringing out the best in each and every one.

Transcript Release
This form should be given directly to your son’s current school. It authorizes his current school to send us his records from the current year (first and second quarters) and records from two previous school years. Once an application has been submitted, this form can be found on your son’s admissions checklist on SaintsNet.
Teacher Recommendations
St. Christopher’s requires a current Teacher Recommendation for your son. You may send a request for recommendation to your son’s homeroom teacher through the admissions checklist on SaintsNet. You are encouraged to request that his teacher use the online tool for submitting recommendation forms, as this ensures accuracy and timeliness of submission. If preferred, your son’s teacher may mail or fax a paper recommendation to our Admissions Office.
