From the Desk of the Principal

Dear Bishop Family -

As we embark on our Lenten Journey, let us focus on charity, or almsgiving, as a sign of Christian love for others. It involves some sacrifice on behalf of the giver in order to provide for the needs of the other. In doing this, bonds of community are formed.

I would like to invite you and remind you that our Annual Navy and Gold Gala, with the theme of UnGala is a charity event. Please share your talents, gifts, and presence with our community. 

If you are unable to attend, please sponsor the event or donate to our Annual Fund. No matter how large or small your contribution is, it will greatly make an impact. Help me build a legacy at Bishop with your support. I am looking forward to celebrating with you and Bishop Emeritus Robert N. Lynch as we carry on with his established vision for BMCHS.  



Take care and create peace,

Ms. Jenalisa Zummo

Principal 

Second semester is flying by here at BMCHS! We are quickly approaching Holy Week and the Easter Holidays. As we move further along into second semester, I wanted to provide a few updates:

• Spring Sports are in “full swing” with the baseball, softball, beach volleyball, and tennis teams competing in-season. The school will have a Spring Sports Pep Rally on Friday, March 22 to recognize and honor the players.

• A number of students are still missing parking permits. Please use the following link to purchase parking tags. Please note that the school gives out parking tickets for student vehicles parked without a permit.

• Thank you to the 20 individuals who participated in the school’s blood drive in January! The proceeds raised from this drive will go into the SGA account for student activities. The school is currently working with OneBlood to schedule one additional drive to be held in May.

Thank you for all that you do to support Bishop students and make their high school experience memorable. Please feel free to reach out any time with questions, inquiries, or concerns. Have a great weekend!
