A Message from the Principal


Dear Friends,                                 June 12, 2017

What a fabulous graduation on June 1st! The Class of 2017 was joined by members of the Class of 1967 who celebrated their 50th Anniversary reunion. As members of the first graduating class from Kolbe, they applauded the 75 grads who are making their way to college campuses in the Fall. They are heading to Cornell, Delaware, Loyola-Maryland, Fairfield, UCONN and many more!

As a result of the Class of 1967, the grads felt their connection to Kolbe's proud past and the promise of a bright future! Having enjoyed many such Kolbe Cathedral graduations and witnessed our grads return to visit as accomplished young adults gives me confidence in the future. 

Although I will not report in to KCHS everyday, I will maintain my email address ([email protected]) and look forward to hearing from you. As a board member, I remain available to assist you in any way I can. You will be in my prayers of gratitude for your support and generosity. Have a blessed summer!
Faithfully,
Jo-Anne Jakab

Bridgeport's Junior City Council Program
Kolbe Cathedral's 10th/11th graders complete the City of Bridgeport's Junior City Council Program. This program was designed to give high school students a chance to learn and participate in city government. Students were exposed to city government,  met with professionals in civil service careers, and attended council meetings.
