Religious Life

Bishop Robert McManus and Gabriel Lopez

We celebrate Liturgy with Fr. Dolan in the school cafeteria. The liturgical calendar is sent home to families at the beginning of the school year. Parents and loved ones are welcomed guests as we gather together in celebration!

Historic Windows

Our school is blessed to have two beautiful stained glass windows. Both were originally in St. Bernard‘s Church on Water Street and were gifted to us when that Church closed. The Church seal window can be found in our Main Lobby.

The second window, which hangs in the window of the upper hallway, is a youthful St. Bernard of Clairveaux, our patron saint.

These beautiful windows connect our 21st century Bernardians with the parishioners of the 19th century who not only built our parish church but our original school which opened in 1886. These windows are symbols of our faith and reminders of the gifts left to us by Bernardians of long ago.
