OLQM School and Keeping All Things New
Many parents are hearing incorrect information regarding the Archdiocese's program entitled Keeping All Things New.
The program like regionalization that consolidated schools last year plans to consolidate church buildings this year beginning in June of 2014.
The Superintendent of Schools office announced last week that Cardinal Dolan has announced that any Church that closes will not effect the stability of the school.
School buildings will remain open if Church buildings are consolidated and no schools will be closed.
Parents are requested to inform people that say schools will close should be instructed them to call the Superintendent of Schools office at 212-371-1000 to verify that no Catholic Schools will close this year.
