Exciting news about the growth of St. Stephen’s School: a beautifully renovated ex-convent, now known as the Collegio on Colle Oppio, located on Via delle Sette Sale behind San Pietro in Vincoli, will host the 11th and 12th-grade boarding program, set to open its doors at the beginning of the ‘24-’25 school year.
Strategically located within walking distance of the main campus at Aventina 3 and the city's iconic landmarks, this new boarding facility will significantly enhance student accommodations. The move will enable the transfer of upper-class boarding students from Via Aventina 3 to the new Collegio, transforming the freed-up space into much-needed additional classrooms.
This expansion marks a pivotal moment for St. Stephen's, offering numerous opportunities for improvement and growth. The new boarding facilities will provide substantial benefits for students and the entire school community, including:
Advancement of Strategic Plan 4 (SP4)
In line with the ongoing commitment to progress, this new boarding facility supports goals of increasing boarding capacity and enhancing classroom environments, aligning with the objectives of Strategic Plan 4.
Enhanced Boarding Experience
Dedicated to creating a supportive and enriching residential community, the new facility will allow an increase in the number of boarders and provide an environment that perfectly complements the academic mission.
Optimized Academic Resources
With the expansion, academic resources can be optimized with the additional classroom space in Via Aventina 3, thereby enhancing teaching and learning experiences for all students. This strategic move not only strengthens current academic programs but also allows for new courses, enriching the educational experience for all students.
Confidence is high that the new boarding facility will contribute significantly to the continued growth and success of the school, maintaining the academic hub at Via Aventina 3. The commitment to delivering an exceptional educational experience for students remains steadfast.
