St Bernard School

251 E Bridge Street, Breaux Bridge, LA, 70517-0705 -

School Notes Overview:

St. Bernard Elementary School strives to foster a Roman Catholic Christian educational community in which faith is shared by teachers, students, and parents. We endeavor to help each student to achieve a personal relationship with Christ, to provide opportunities for personal and communal prayer, and to involve the students in the liturgy. Further, we seek to instill within the students a sense of mission and concern for others and to afford them the opportunities to express this through service to the school church, local community, and worldwide community. The St. Bernard School community is a unique setting where every child can discover his/her own talents and ways to share them. Our school not only educates, but also nurtures each child and builds a unity with Christ. We invite you to be a part of our family. St. Bernard School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, national or ethnic origin in its educational programs, activities or employment practices. ...
