THE BROTHERHOOD NEVER ENDS!

Dear Parents and Guardians,

It is hard to believe that we have already started the month of October and completed a few weeks of school. I am grateful to our teachers and school leadership team for a strong start to the year. There is great excitement in the hallways and good school spirit around campus. By now, you have had opportunities to attend Back-to-School night and meet our teachers. Your son is in skillful hands, being taught by teachers who are masters in their fields and have positively impacted many Bergen Catholic students who, as they prepare to leave us, have gained acceptance to top colleges and universities throughout our country.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has entered the education space and is here to stay. Like prior initiatives, we have begun to form committees to learn more and are investing dollars in the professional development of our faculty. We want to learn all we can about AI and how students can use AI to help increase their learning and understanding of many topics throughout our curriculum. This is an exciting time in education and Bergen Catholic cannot watch these changes from the sideline. We want to be in front of AI as much as possible and devote outreach and training opportunities to our teachers and students. I’m excited to learn more about this and update our community accordingly.

We are pleased with Mr. Giarusso’s efforts as our new Dean of Discipline. Please continue to partner with him by underscoring the importance of (a) dress code, (b) length of hair, and (c) arriving to school on time. We are Bergen Catholic—our expectations are high, and we expect our boys to reach that level and be comfortable and proud representing themselves, their families, and our great school. 

Thank you for sending your son to Bergen Catholic, and may God bless you and your family

Warm Regards,
