A Note from your Principals

8TH ANNUAL HUMBOLDT HOLIDAY FOOD DRIVE

Thanks to the incredible generosity of thousands of students and caring neighbors throughout Humboldt County, the 2022 Holiday Food Drive was a huge success. A record-breaking 19,500 pounds of food was donated and over $35,000 was raised.

Each year, St. Bernard’s “competes” with area high schools to collect the most donations. Year after year, the Gold Can has been handed over to the Crusaders. Let’s do it again!

WHO DOES THE FOOD DRIVE BENEFIT?

100% of all proceeds (nonperishable food and all financial donations) will benefit Food for People, Humboldt County’s food bank. Food for People helps feed more than 16,000 people each month – 12% of Humboldt County’s population. The number of people seeking food access from Food for People is increasing: 21,000 people were helped last month.

HOW DOES THE FOOD DRIVE WORK?

The Food Drive kicks off Monday, November 13 and runs through December 7. Our ASB will help kick our school spirit into high gear and help us collect as much nonperishable food as possible (canned food along with dried food such as rice, beans, pastas and instant potatoes are happily accepted). Food for People will be delivering barrels to each of the schools on Thursday, November 9.

If your business would like to partner with St. Bernard’s to help our community – just let us know. There are no limits on the ways we can be generous to our “Dear Neighbor”.

HDN Sportsmanship Summit

Our ASB leadership members will join student leaders from Hoopa, Eureka, South Fork, Del Norte, Arcata, Ferndale, McKinleyville, NPA, and Southern Trinity on Monday for the first annual HDN Sportsmanship Summit at College of the Redwoods from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm.

The purpose of the Summit is to assist our HDN member schools with their citizenship and sportsmanship efforts for students, student athletes, adult fans, advisors, parents, and booster clubs. The students leaders will help develop plans to improve or maintain good sportsmanship through both counties.

The Summit will feature a morning welcome address, two breakout workshops, and a closing keynote all of which focus on the ideals of sportsmanship/citizenship. 

The members schools awarded St. Bernard’s Academy with the HDN Sportsmanship banner for the last two sports seasons.
