From Our Community
Tim Browdy '24 | Student, University of Notre Dame
"When I first came to SLUH, I knew my interests and how I wanted to spend my time in high school, yet I’ve become involved in clubs and activities that I never could have imagined doing in middle school. SLUH has been formative in shaping my development as a well-rounded, academically curious student and an engaged member of society."
Kam Bailey '23 | Student, DePauw University
"Everything you hear about the SLUH brotherhood is real. The school has an open and welcoming environment for people from different backgrounds. I met guys who made my four-year experience at SLUH one I’ll remember forever, treating me more like a brother or family member than a classmate."
Joe Palazzolo ’00 | Reporter, The Wall Street Journal; Winner of three Pulitzer Prizes
“At SLUH I had teachers who saw and nurtured things in me that I couldn't – and wouldn't for some time – see in myself. They set me up to succeed in college and beyond. Most importantly, they taught me to think critically, be curious, be humble and be a Man for Others.”
Matt Kreuter & Charlene Caburnay | Current Parents
"Although our family is not from St. Louis, we quickly learned SLUH is the complete package. From Day 1, students have a sense of belonging and connection, countless opportunities to engage, and elite instruction in a great learning environment. Every night at dinner we hear about some cool thing that happened in class that day. The school is full of master teachers who have a clear plan and really care about student learning."
Col. J.P. McDonough III '90 | Alumnus
"Although going to SLUH might be taking a step out of your comfort zone, it is a choice that will change your life forever. As the Commandant of Midshipmen at the Naval Academy, I realize the sense of service and call to serve something greater than yourself that I learned at SLUH has laid the foundation for my service to our nation."
Shawn Henderson '01 | Director, Wholesale Channel at General Mills
"The SLUH focus on being a Man for Others provides powerful meaning for how to live in service to others. Our lives are bigger than just our own personal goals and pursuits, and I'm grateful for SLUH teaching me that at an early age."
Michael Niese '16 | Professional Football Player
"SLUH instills hard work, discipline and how to treat others through academics and sports. These qualities will empower you to succeed at whatever you choose. Give it your all and you will be rewarded."
