BISHOP / HIGH Dr. Paul Harrington Head of School Dear Friends, As I begin my fourth year at Bishop High I believe more firmly than ever in the Bishop High difference. That difference, simply put, is the relationships among students, families, alumni, friends, faculty, staff, and trustees. A school’s culture can be defined by the values it instills, beliefs shared and the traditions celebrated. This culture provides the foundation for our informal curriculum. It is this culture that enables us to really know our students as individuals and it remains with our graduates long after their four years of formal curriculum end at graduation. Our school’s culture is rooted in our mission to promote the spiritual, academic, physical, and emotional development of our students. The fruits of this work are seen in many aspects of campus life. This spirit and camaraderie were ever-present last spring during the 2011 playoff games as the boys’ and girls’ basketball teams made tremendous runs at CIF titles. And for those of us privileged to attend the senior class retreat in March, we witnessed students and faculty as they shared experiences of personal faith journeys. The presence of God’s work was evident in each and every participant. Many of the remarkable successes of our students are a direct result of the wonderful opportunities provided by our generous benefactors. You, our benefactors, help make the Bishop High difference. Your unwavering support and unparalled generosity have afforded hundreds of students the chance to learn and grow in this special environment. It takes the entire Bishop community to make a difference in the lives of our high school students. The following pages celebrate the partnership that we as faculty, staff and administration share with you, our parents, alumni and friends. We thank you! Kindly, Dr. Paul Harrington Head of School 1
On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the cadre of people that makes Bishop such a remarkable place. First, I would like to thank all of our current families, alumni and generous benefactors who continue to support Bishop year after year. It is only with your support that we can continue to implement our mission and grow our school. Because of you, we were able to: • Offer financial aid to 60% of our school families • Convert our campus to solar power • Completely renovate our science classrooms and outfit them with state-of-the-art supplies, software and technology • Beef up our support for the Arts with a wonderful Evening of the Arts program • Re-wire the entire campus to meet the future technology needs of the school It is because of you that we are able to make a difference in the lives of our students on a daily basis. I would also like to thank our tremendous administration, faculty and staff for the exemplary job that they perform on a daily basis. You truly go the extra mile to support, nurture, and educate our students. We are so blessed to have such a dedicated team to prepare our students to be “Ready for College and Ready for Life.” I would like to thank our students— without whom we would not exist. I have gotten to know many of you throughout the years, and I am constantly amazed at your poise, integrity, intellect and grace. Thank you parents who sacrifice and make the choice to give your child an independent, Catholic, co-educational, collegepreparatory education. You are making an investment in your student’s future, for which we are grateful. Last, I have to thank the tremendous people who make up our Board of Trustees. You volunteer your time, gifts and talents to the school on a daily basis. I would especially like to thank Peter Da Ros, Sr. Angela Hallahan, Ralph Iannelli, Carla O’Neill, Lynette Patters and B. Williams for their service over the past 5 years on the board. You have been instrumental in the success of Bishop. Go Cardinals! Maria Fazio, R. N. Chair, Board of Trustees 2 Maria Fazio, R.N.
