Students stand, in military arrangement, outside of St. Bernard's convent school holding rifles. St. Bernard's was a school for boys staffed by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet from 1905-1910. It was also a military academy with training provided to the boys by a Civil War veteran. Staffing a school with military training was very unusual for the Sisters of St. Joseph. The school was destroyed by fire in 1910.
