Testimonials
St. Bernard High School inspires students to be faith-filled disciples, passionate learners, courageous leaders, innovative thinkers, and honorable citizens. We anchor this college preparatory education in Roman Catholic tradition and a diverse, faith-based community.
"Teachers at St. Bernard really made a difference in my life. Their patience (to an appropriate limit given some of my antics), expertise, and passion to help me and my classmates learn what was both important academically and morally in life prepared me exceptionally well for college and strengthened the moral compass that has guided every important choice/decision I’ve made since graduation. I am grateful for them to this day and still keep them in my prayers."

"Saint Bernard High School forms students to know and love God, to lead with faith, and to act with grace and dignity – acknowledging the Lord’s unique presence within and around them. As faith-filled disciples, SBHS students and alumni bear witness to love, hope and compassion and actively invite others to join as they move through life."
Dr. Franca Dell’Olio, Professor, Educational Leadership and Administration , Loyola Marymount University
‘The teachers and administrators at St. Bernard helped me find my “voice”, literally and figuratively. I vividly remember being encouraged to be a strong, independent thinker and leader. I also was actively involved in the speech club, and the nurturing I received there led to a career in news broadcasting.’
Sylvia Lopez, News Anchor for CBS2 and KCAL9 in Los Angeles
"I’ve always appreciated the well-rounded education I received at St. Bernard and am proud to tell people I’m a Viking. It provided me a solid academic foundation I could use a springboard for my career in engineering and, more importantly, prepared me as a person for the challenges of living the Faith without fear in our city and world."
