St. Gerard Majella Catholic School was first built as a relocatable school and opened in the fall of 1971. It was a 12-room complex, including four classroom pods, a library, as well as a kindergarten and administrative area. In response to population growth a permanent building was constructed as one of the first open area concept schools, with two large classroom pods downstairs and one large area upstairs. The building was completed in time for the commencement of the 1971 school year. The official opening ceremony and solemn blessing of the school took place on June 4, 1972. The 25th anniversary celebration of St. Gerard Majella School took place during the 1996/97 school year.
The patron saint of our school is St. Gerard Majella who was born near Naples on April 23, 1726 and canonized by Pope Pius X on December 11, 1904, St. Gerard worked as a tailor as a youth and he eventually was accepted by the Redemptorists as a brother in 1749. St. Gerard became renowned for his remarkable power of prophecy. As a result, he was made spiritual counselor to many of the religious in various communities. St. Gerard Majella died of tuberculosis in 1755 at the age of 29. Women the world over have adopted St. Gerard Majella as the patron saint of expectant mothers. The feast day of St. Gerard Majella is October 16.
