The school, which was founded as Catholic Central High School on Sept. 16, 1921, plans to involve students and alumni alike in beginning this new tradition as BNI prepares for its Centennial Celebration in 2021
Alumni, students and current families are invited to join the BNI family for Mass at either 9:30 a.m. or 6:30 p.m. The 9:30 a.m. all-school Mass will be celebrated by the Rev.

Joseph Semancik, Catholic Central Class of 1945.
The day will also include special live streaming of interviews, the revealing of the Centennial theme and new logo and other content to celebrate the school’s rich history in Northwest Indiana. Video content will be available at bishopnoll.org and via social media starting at 9 a.m. Monday.
