Former BJP teacher Jake Braithwaite was recently featured on the AMDG Podcast, where he had the opportunity to speak on his final days of preparing for ordination to the priesthood. He reflects on how BJP impacted his Jesuit formation, as he worked at our school not only teaching, but also staging liturgical readings as short plays and slam poetry. We congratulate Jake on all his hard work. To listen to Jake’s episode on AMDG, please click the link in our bio.

Today we are hosting our eighth grade retreat at BJP. Ms. Locario leads the retreat, asking students to enter the space with a mindset to come, seek, and trust themselves and their peers.
We are proud of our eighth graders for all they have done while at BJP, and hope they’re enjoying their day and looking forward to the end of the school year!
Thank you to everyone who has supported this year's gala. We are grateful to the family and friends of Melissa Garville for allowing us to spend the evening honoring her legacy.
Thank you to our alumni speakers, Neena Osman, BJP class of 2023 & Alicia Cage, BJP class of 2018. We are glad to hear your stories and support you as you continue your journeys with grace.
Thank you to all attendees and supporters for making our Gala a resounding success. We are proud to share that we have raised over $700,000 in support of last week's event. This result would not have been possible without the care and enthusiasm of our community.
