Bishop Garrigan was a smaller school which allowed you to create personal relationships with everyone involved with the school from students to faculty.

I really enjoyed my four years at Garrigan! I was heavily involved in many activities at the school, but because of the wonderful teachers, I maintained a high GPA! I am very proud to call BG my Alma Mater!
