Bishop Verot launched my wife and I on a lifelong journey of a lived faith. Even more so now we see our children and their BV peers respond to the call to live Jesus!
Mark Latell, Class of 1983
I moved to Florida during high school, transferring into Bishop Verot. I felt very welcomed, making lifelong friends. After graduation, I realized how strong the Verot community was and how lucky I was to be part of it. Wanting the same for my children, my husband and I chose Verot for our own four children.
