Chaminade College Preparatory School

To answer that famous St. Louis question I went to Chaminade. For those of you who want to know the dates it was 1962 to 1968. Yes 6 years as I started in 7^th grade as was usual for this school. I could write a book about my years here but won’t bore you with all the dumb things I did while attending this fine institution. When I went and today even more so a College Preparatory School. In short it is plug and play. You go in 7^th grade and come out prepared for college. This was the same for me, my uncle who attended in the 30’s and my two sons who attended in the the late 90’s and early 2000’s.
When I went here most of the classes were taught by Brothers and Priests. Now it has gone all lay teachers. I guess things were different when I went as if you got out of line literally or figuratively you felt the consequences. My sons did not. All three of us turned out OK.
I am proud that I went here, proud both my sons went here and will remain a Chaminade man for my life.
