Christian Brothers’ annual Open House will take place on Sunday, October 11, from 1 to 3 PM. This event presents an important opportunity for all members of the Christian Brothers family to invite students who would be great candidates for admission to our school community to visit the campus. Administration, faculty, coaches and students will be on hand that day to extend Christian Brothers’ hospitality, to explain programs, to answer questions, and to provide tours. All academic departments, student clubs and organizations, athletic teams, and the campus ministry and counseling programs will be on display for our guests. Applicants may also register for the required Placement Exam for incoming freshman which will take place on January 30, 1999, 8am to 12 noon.

As members of the Christian Brothers family, we ask you to extend a personal invitation to others to be a part of the future of Christian Brothers. In addition to the Open House, Mr. Jim Hughes will continue visiting elementary schools with teams of CB students. As part of one of the most important programs to introduce potential applicants to the school, students will also continue to spend the day on the CB campus with our students and teachers in classes. Mr. Hughes and Mrs. Mary Alice Delgado are available in the Admissions Department at 733-3690 to assist you and recommended students
