BI was packed with new students and their families last night! Our Admissions team put on a great New Parent Orientation and new student event. While the parents learned about the ins and outs of Bishop Ireton, our new Cardinals got to know each other with icebreaker games and more led by our Student Life team! After the presentation and the student activities, everyone enjoyed Chick-fil-A in Murphy Hall to close out the night. We're excited to officially welcome our new students to the nest in August!

Congratulations to Fr. William Metzger, OSFS, who celebrated the 55th anniversary of his ordination on June 5! Father Metzger remains the longest serving principal in BI history (1989-2000) and he was pivotal in the school's transition from all-boys to co-ed in the early 1990s.
