"When you think back to your high school years and the fond memories that bring a smile to your face, please think about giving. Because that means there’s been a positive effect on you – both when it happened, and today as you think about it."

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE GIVING
"I give back because I believe Bishop McNamara put me on the right path academically. It helped me realize I could be ‘smart.’ Bishop McNamara also encouraged me to believe that I could do anything to which I set my mind."

PARENT GIVING
"Bishop McNamara High School embraces the parents as much as they embrace the kids. That really attracted me, and it felt good that they know who you are when they talk to you, they’re approachable – you just get a good feeling being here!"

ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIP GIVING
"I choose to give to Bishop McNamara because I believe in the mission of this school. Even though I am a La Reine graduate, I consider myself an alumna. I am very excited about the building of the La Reine Science Center to continue the memory of my wonderful high school and former sister school of Bishop McNamara."
