Bethlehem High School/diocese

At Bethlehem High School, we believe that the formative years are a critically important time for young people to discover a love for life-long learning, to discover and appreciate their own talents, and to celebrate the talents of their peers, but most of all, to discover that each one of us was created by God for a unique purpose.
We provide opportunities for this revelation, not only through traditional classroom experiences, but also through retreats, service projects, extracurricular clubs and team sports. Bethlehem High School truly is a place where young people can discover their full potential.
