"My two children attended St. Bernadette and when our family was relocated to Mobile, Alabama, I was really nervous about them attending a public school even though it is one of the best in the city.  The new school had 1,000 children in K-5 and we were so used to our small St. Bernadette's!  When school started, their teachers and I were glad to see that both of them were already ahead of the rest of their class and are constantly making straight A's!  We like their new school, but I really miss the closeness and the small class sizes at St. Bernadette.  But, most of all I miss how everyone seemed so nice.  It was always like one big family."

"I meet a lot of children and visit a lot of schools and St. Bernadette is without a doubt the best school, public or private, across seven panhandle counties."

"I live right next door to a well known Catholic school in Panama City and I choose to drive 30 minutes over the bridge to St. Bernadette because this school gives my child the individualized attention he deserves.  Before St. Bernadette, my son hated school; now he loves it thanks to the dedicated faculty and staff who have made learning fun and helped him thrive."

Selma Hill

"Our son is receiving a high quality education at St. Bernadette which is evident by his high standardized test scores.  But we like the fact that the emphasis here is not put on teaching to the standardized test, but on learning the material.  Our son feels very comfortable here, and even though he is non-Catholic, he and the other non-Catholic students are treated as equals with the Catholic students.  We highly recommend St. Bernadette to all families who want to provide their children with a quality education in a safe, family atmosphere."

"We are so proud to have our daughter at St. Bernadette School.  Not only do we feel she is getting a top-notch education, but she is also learning important life skills.  Our daughter is having the same values we practice at home reinforced at school daily.  Through various acts of charity, the children of St. Bernadette are learning compassion and empathy for others.  We feel our daughter is getting a strong foundation academically and spiritually which will prepare her for a richer, more fulfilled life.  Even in these challenging, economic times, we cannot think of a better way to invest in our daughter's future."
