How to use St. Genevieve Memories website

Much of the history that has been compiled on stgenevievememories.org of all the St. Genevieve schools is visible to the public. On the home page, you can hover over "St. Genevieve-of-the-Pines" to select SGP College, SGP Academy, SGP Junior College, SGP Secretarial School, SGP Prep, or Gibbons Hall School for Boys. Or you can click "St. Genevieve/Gibbons Hall" to see stories and read historical accounts from all the schools. However, in order to see individuals, classes, faculty & staff, you will need to register to login to the site.

School Associations & How Information Is Organized

Did you know that, at one time or another, there were a total of seven different St. Genevieve schools? To cover all of this information, this website is powered by an extensive database that is growing every day. Its navigation filters by school so users may see information that is most relevant to them, while still giving them access to all information on the site.

For instance, if Stephanie Smith (SGGH ’86) shares a memory, her story will show on her profile page under St. Genevieve Gibbons Hall. It will also show on the St. Genevieve Gibbons Hall Memories page. Stephanie’s story would not show under St. Genevieve of the Pines or on the St. Genevieve of the Pines Memories page because Stephanie did not attend SGP. Her story, however, is visible to everyone through her profile or through the Search Feature at the top right corner of every page.

How to Upload a Memory to Your Profile Page

Sharing Information Outside of Your Profile Page

Group class photos, school documents and other items can be added to your profile page, but some of these items might serve a greater purpose in other parts of the site. If you have any of these items, specifically group class photos or documents that are not yet shown on the site, please contact the site administrator by using the Contact button at the bottom of any page. We’ll make sure these get uploaded to the right places and give you credit for supplying these items. Eventually we hope to add more functionality to allow you to upload these items with greater ease.
