Introduction

The information in this pamphlet has been carefully prepared and presented so that it will be of great value in helping each student develop and accept responsibilities and obligations of good citizenship. A student shows a desire to attend Bishop Garrigan by observing these policies and by acting as a Christian gentleman or a Christian lady at all times. Misconduct in school or un-Christian behavior outside of school is harmful to the general good and is a clear indication that a student does not wish to continue as a Bishop Garrigan student.

As a student of Bishop Garrigan High school, your presence and your decorum make a mark in our communities. Whether it is right or wrong, often citizens expect more of a Bishop Garrigan student than that of other high school students. This could be a tribute insofar that it is believed that your home environment assists you in developing into an above average member of the community. Thus:

a) Remember that your school membership follows you at all times, into all places. You, by your conduct, develop not only your reputation, but that of Bishop Garrigan High School and your fellow students as well.

b) Your participation in parish and community events is vital to your reputation and that of the school. Seek to become part of any good movement where youth can be involved.

c) Be noted for courtesy and concern, particularly with regard to your elders.

d) Above all, never be guilty of violating any local, state or federal ordinances. Violations may result in disciplinary action on the part of the school, as well as by the law enforcement officials. YOU ARE PART OF THE GARRIGAN PRIDE! Your life, inside and outside of school, is part of Bishop Garrigan Pride.
