School Profile
Overview
Saint Benedict Hall was founded in August 2018 with a group of 5 homeschool families at Christ the Foundation Anglican Church. Since then SBH has grown into a dynamic K-12 collaborative educational program serving more than 57 families and 83 students. Learn more about the collaborative (also known as “hybrid”) homeschool movement.
SBH meets Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays 8am-2:30pm at Daybreak Church in Kailua, Hawaii. Thursdays and Fridays are “home days” where parents direct home study. We follow a trimester academic calendar for our K-8th grades and semester schedule for our high school.
We’re committed to cultivating an atmosphere marked by the love, transcendence, and imminance of Christ, and where the best of Western civilization and a love of Hawaiian culture is taught.
Our staff are folded into and formed by the rhythms and routines of the Anglican spiritual tradition. The school community is centered around morning and midday prayer each day, weekly Holy Communion services at the school, and observing the church calendar.
Through the years SBH has been blessed with a phenomenal teaching staff of committed and passionate educators.
Our cultural principles and expressions are articulated here.

In our approach to education we believe
The teacher is the curriculum
Raising sturdy kids means giving them reasonable challenges
Children should learn to love their local community first and by degrees the larger world as they get older
Culture is king
Singing and Dance is the true test of a culture’s health
Conforming our calendar around the life of Christ
Restoring the vision for Christian education that King Kamehameha IV and Queen Emma had for the Hawaiian islands
An integrated life of the church and school
Seeing discipline problems as opportunities for growth
A “strong willed child” is really a child who doesn’t have the strength of will to do the right thing
Having a commitment to steady improvement to the schools culture and systems
Marriage was intended to be between one man and one woman to reflect the greater reality of Christ’s covenant love for His people
The life of the unborn should be protected
Our cultural moment demands (sometimes unlikely) alliances between like-minded families to pass on the flame of our faith and civilization to our children
Our primary commitment is to pledge our allegiance to God in the Creeds rather than a nation state
Nominalism has played a significant role in the development of secularism
