Welcome to St. Dominic School

Welcome to St. Dominic School, a Preschool through Eighth Grade coeducational Catholic school located in the historic city of Benicia, California. We are a ministry of St. Dominic Parish, which was established in 1854 by the Dominican Order of Priests, and are a part of the Diocese of Sacramento.

Throughout these pages, you will find information about our state-licensed Preschool, our full-day Kindergarten program, and our excellent spiritual, academic, and enrichment opportunities available to our students. We are fully accredited by the Western Catholic Educational Association (WCEA) and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), our most recent self-study having been completed in 2006, earning us accreditation through 2013.

We offer a challenging curriculum that is aligned with Diocesan and state standards, which includes daily Religion instruction, and weekly classes in Spanish, Music, Technology, and Physical Education. Students in Grades 5-8 are also eligible to participate in our extra-curricular sports program as members of the Solano Parochial Athletic League (SPAL). Our students are cared for both before and after school through our Extension program; and hot lunches are available for purchase Monday-Thursday.

We truly believe that it takes a community to raise a child, and we endeavor to foster and provide for the growth of the whole person while they are in our care. We invite you to take a look at our campus tour and to experience the magic that is St. Dominic School.



Mrs. Theresa Walsh Cullen, Principal
