Ambassador Program

Program Directors: Dr. Adell Sheahan and Mr. Drew Schwalbe '90

 

Program Purpose: 

 

The purpose of the Senior Ambassador Program is to assist with the transition from middle school to freshman year at Benedictine Military School. With a new group of friends, a new environment, rigorous study schedule, and adjusting to high school, life can be intimidating and daunting. The Senior Ambassador serves as mentor, guide, coach, resource, role model, and advocate for his mentee. The mentee’s “Big Brother” is able to answer the “Little Brother's” questions and concerns, as well as introduce their “Little Brother” to campus life, traditions, expectations, and make each ninth-grade Cadet feel comfortable in his first year at Benedictine Military School.

 

The purpose of the Community Ambassador program is for junior-level students to engage with the Benedictine community - students, prospective new families, alumni, and other stakeholders. A Community Ambassador will serve as a representative of the school during on-and-off-campus functions. Community Ambassadors are expected to model Benedictine’s values of discipline, respect, responsibility, leadership, and brotherhood at all times.
