Archives

Treasures run deep on the shelves of the St. Bernard’s Archives. It is here where one can find lyrics to the St. Bernard’s School Hymn, original grade books of the school’s first headmaster, John C. Jenkins, motion picture footage of potato sack races from Sports Day 1938, photographs of elaborately costumed boys from Shakespeare productions dating back to 1910, and the occasional oddity, such as an engraved martini shaker once owned by a beloved faculty member, Vere Manders, who taught at the school from 1912 to 1952.

The mission of the St. Bernard’s Archives is to identify, preserve, and make available for study documentation regarding life at St. Bernard’s School. To support the preservation of St. Bernard’s legacy, the Archives seeks any of the following material: school assignments, school schedules and calendars, written reports, reading lists, and scripts from class productions, memorabilia, photographic prints, scrapbooks, as well as audio or video recordings.
