Principal's Message

My name is Bret Bohannon, and I am honored to serve as the principal of St. Bernard-Elmwood Place Jr./Sr. High School. Over the past eight years, I have had the privilege of working alongside our dedicated staff, families, and community to support our students’ growth and success.

At St. Bernard-Elmwood Place, our vision is to make this a premier school by providing innovative and engaging educational experiences. This dedication to excellence is reflected in our recent achievements: we are incredibly proud to celebrate a graduation rate of over 97%. Additionally, our school was recently honored by the state of Ohio with the prestigious Momentum Award, which recognizes schools that have shown outstanding improvement on state assessments on the most recent state report card.

By partnering closely with families and community members, we strive to ensure that every student has the opportunity to succeed and pursue their dreams. Our outstanding staff is committed to putting students first every single day. We are dedicated to creating a learning environment that challenges and supports students academically, while also providing them with opportunities for growth outside the classroom. Through a wide range of activities, clubs, and athletic programs, we work to engage students’ varied interests and foster a strong sense of belonging.

Our ultimate goal is to prepare all students for graduation and to equip them with the knowledge, skills, and support they need for their future endeavors.

Thank you for entrusting us with your student’s education, and as always… GO TITANS!
