History

Bishop Grimes Junior/Senior High School was established in 1966. It is named after the second bishop of Syracuse, John Grimes. "Originally, the school was staffed by members of the Marist Fathers, priests from the Syracuse Diocese, sisters of Saint Joseph of Carondelet, and by lay teachers. Today, the school is governed by a Board of Trustees composed of community leaders, alumni, and clergy. The Board of Trustees, administration, faculty, staff, and coaches are dedicated to carrying out the school’s mission by providing a rigorous, high-quality, Catholic educational experience." The school has had students from almost every public school district in Onondaga County. Plus, they have had kids of each Catholic parish in the Diocese of Syracuse. In 2005, they were in the Top 50 Catholic High Schools in the USA based on academics by the Cardinal Newman Society.

Academics and student life

Bishop Grimes has an on-site chapel, monthly Masses, Theology classes, including retreats for each grade. They have 43 JV, modified, and varsity sports teams and two gymnasiums including a field that they can practice on. They offer the opportunity to take either Spanish or French, plus, they can go on tours abroad. They also provide the opportunity to take a band class, a chorus class, and/or drama. The school cooperates with Le Moyne College and offers Advanced Placement Courses. This means that people with high grades on their PSATs can take Le Moyne classes at only a fraction of the price. To assist those with special needs, they have a teacher who is a full-time IEP and a 504-Plan instructor. Financial aid and scholarships are ready with the proper documentation. The Class of 2020 received over $5,000,000 in scholarships, including financial awards. All students that come to Bishop Grimes get a congratulatory iPad for enrolling in the school starting in September 2021. They historically had Chromebooks for quite a few years until 2021.
