Superior Dominican Sister Mary Dionysius, Sister Mary Leonarda, and Sister Joseph Marie arrived at St. Joseph Church on August 23, 1924. They opened Bradley's first Catholic school. Classrooms were in various parts of the church building. There were 186 children in the first six grades. In the spring of 1925, Pastor Harris A. Darche received a wooden building from Bear Brand Hosiery Company. Workmen converted the building's two floors into four classrooms and an assembly hall.
