Who We Are

St. Benedict Catholic School is the result of two combined elementary schools. St. Benedict is an incorporated school supported by its founding parishes St. Martin of Tours and St. Monica and governed by a Board of Directors.  St. Benedict Catholic School opened on July 1, 2012.

In the Fall of 2021, the St. Benedict added a daycare to the school community.  The daycare is located at the Early Learning Center on the campus of St. Martin of Tours Church.  The Early Learning Center serves children 6 weeks - kindergarten.

St. Benedict is a newly-formed inter-parochial Catholic elementary school created as a result of the vision and collaboration of St. Martin of Tours and St. Monica Parishes, serving Maple Heights, Garfield Heights and other southeast communities of greater Cleveland. We hope you will come visit us!
