Bishop Timon - St. Jude High School is a Roman Catholic Franciscan private high school for young men located at 601 McKinley Parkway in South Buffalo, New York. The school was founded in the fall of 1946 and is located within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Buffalo.
History
In 1946, the school officially opened its doors with a class of 76 freshmen. For three years, Timon was temporarily housed at Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Buffalo's old First Ward. On September 6, 1949, Timon moved into its current home on McKinley Parkway with an enrollment of approximately 800 young men. In June 1950, Bishop O'Hara awarded diplomas to Bishop Timon's first graduating class. The school was named Bishop Timon after Buffalo's first bishop, John Timon. In 1993, the school added St. Jude to its name.[cite web |url=http://www.bishoptimon.com/history.asp|title=History of Bishop Timon |accessdate=2007-08-01 |publisher=Bishop Timon -St. Jude High School website |author=BTSJHS] ]Campus
