Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
This is to inform you of the closure of the Wellspring Catholic Academy of St. Bernadette. This is decision was based in consultation and much prayer among myself, Archbishop Aquila, the Office of Catholic Schools, as well as countless others for a long time now. The school will formally close on 20 December 2024 for the end of the Calendar year. This decision is of course, disappointing, and not what any one of us would have hoped from from 2019 when the school reopened beyond Pre-K. You will find below more in a letter from myself, Archbishop, and the Superintendent for Catholic Schools below. Please continue to keep all staff, students, and their families in prayer, as well as our parish as a whole during this difficult and sad moment.
Peace in Christ,
Fr Joseph McLagan
