“These decisions were made after extensive reflection, study, and prayer, as we face significant challenges that make it impossible to continue our mission at these locations,” Superintendent Mary Grace Walsh said.

Officials did not detail all of those challenges, but the plan follows a recent review of school enrollment and long-term viability.

What Happens Next For Students

The Archdiocese says it hopes students will stay within the Catholic school system.

“It is our hope that all students will continue their Catholic school education in one of our other Catholic schools,” Walsh added.

School leaders say they will work with families in the coming months to help students transfer.

More Changes Coming

In addition to the closures, two schools will be consolidated:

St. Anthony–St. Paul School in Nanuet/Valley Cottage will move to one campus in Nanuet

Transfiguration School in Manhattan will reduce from three locations to two.

“We know that change can bring mixed emotions, but every step we take is part of a faithful journey of renewal and growth,” Walsh said.
