Thank you to Tony Lowe '86 and his son Bryan '26 for sitting down with us to talk about their time as Saints! 

When Bryan asks his father, "How optimistic are you about the future of the school?" Tony replies, "I’m very optimistic, and I’m also energized by the thought of us reconnecting with alumni. I think if we reconnect with the people that love the school the most, we’re going to build a foundation that’s going to keep us going for the next 100 years."

 

 

Saints, your support is critical to secure the future of Saint Bernard School! 

While many years may have passed since your time here, I want you to know that the magic that spawned the phrase “Once a Saint, Always a Saint”, still exists.

As a result of the Diocesan bankruptcy, the school campus and building were purchased by the Mohegan Tribe. They are emerging as wonderful partners with a desire to see the school succeed, and it is providential that sacred land once belonging to them, has been returned.  They have provided a 20-year lease for one dollar per year, with the clear message that if we are here in 20 years the lease will be renewed.

While the land and building have been saved, we need your help to continue operating. As a private Catholic school, we rely solely on tuition and donations to cover operating expenses. 

Your gift to The Fund for Saint Bernard directly benefits our students; providing tuition assistance to 62% of our students.  Currently only 3% of our 11,000 alumni contribute each year. Please help us increase that number this year to reach 5% or beyond!

We ask you to Stand with Saint Bernard and make a donation to preserve the Saints legacy for future generations.

Sincerely,
 
Don Macrino
Head of School
