Cardinal Joseph Bernardin Catholic School is a regional elementary school located in the Archdiocese of Chicago and is jointly sponsored by four parishes:  St. Elizabeth Seton (Orland Hills), St. Francis of Assisi (Orland Park), St. Julie Billiart (Tinley Park), and St. Stephen, Deacon and Martyr (Tinley Park). 

Under the collaborative leadership of the four sponsoring parishes, and through the efforts of our pastors, teachers, staff, and parents, Cardinal Joseph Bernardin School supports parish ministries through active involvement at weekend liturgies, in faith and family formation, and social service outreach. The Mission of the parishes and school together involves helping students and parents place Christ at the center of life, developing healthy habits of prayer and of decision-making rooted in faith, and promoting character formation based on the virtues in the Gospel.

Within our Catholic School, Jesus illumines all of life, including academics. Cardinal Joseph Bernardin School is committed to the highest standards of academic excellence, providing a Christ- centered quality Catholic education by developing the knowledge, values, attitudes, and skills essential for the unique challenges of the 21st century and beyond.
