Mascot

The Mascot for James L. Collins Catholic School is the North American Black Bear .  It represents bravery, power, speed, endurance and leadership. Our mascot is named after St. Bernadette and our students fondly call her "Berny."  Saint Bernadette of Lourdes was best known as a saint who received visions from the Virgin Mary in a cave near Lourdes. Pope Pius XI canonized her as a saint in 1933.
