Sending our children to Bergan Catholic Schools is one of our greatest blessings! Our kids know they are loved by their teachers. One of my favorite things is that our children are known by name by other students from preschool to seniors. It is truly heartwarming to witness. It's one of the things that makes my momma heart happy to be a part of the Bergan Family!!!
