The archdiocese of New York announced Tuesday that it would close 28 schools at the end of the current academic year. The decision was based on a review by a reconfiguration committee as to which schools would stop receiving subsidies from the archdiocese and, as a consequence, be shuttered.
The decision, which would reduce the archdiocese’s deficit by $10 million, was based on a 71 percent decline in enrollment over the past five years in the 27 schools.
To help the 3,652 affected elementary school students move to another Catholic school, placement counselors would be assigned to districts. For families who would face financial difficulties because of the pupils’ transfer, the archdiocese would accept applications for assistance to be approved on a case-to-case basis.
The archdiocese, which has pastoral responsibility over 2.5 million Catholics, reviewed for two years the long-term viability of 32 schools considered to be at risk of losing their financial subsidies. The panel deferred making a decision on one school – the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Midtown Manhattan -- and kept open only four schools, namely: Good Shepherd in Manhattan, Holy Name of Jesus in Valhalla, Saint Joseph in Kingston and Saint Peter’s in Poughkeepsie.
The schools that will no longer open by September are:
Manhattan
Saint Joseph of the Holy Family
All Saints
Our Lady of Sorrows
Bronx
Saint Augustine
Saint John Vianney
Saint Martin of Tours
Saint Dominic
Saint Anthony
Saint Frances Saint Pius V Girls High School

License.
"Derivative Work" means a work based upon the Work or upon the Work and other pre-existing works, such as a translation,
musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any
other form in which the Work may be recast, transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a
Derivative Work for the purpose of this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition or sound recording, the
synchronization of the Work in timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.
"Licensor" means the individual, individuals, entity or entities that offers the Work under the terms of this License.
"Original Author" means the individual, individuals, entity or entities who created the Work.
"Work" means the copyrightable work of authorship offered under the terms of this License.

or Derivative Works. All rights not expressly granted by Licensor are hereby reserved, including but not limited to the rights set forth in
Sections 4(d) and 4(e).
4. Restrictions.The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made subject to and limited by the following restrictions:

exercising Your rights under this License, You may not implicitly or explicitly assert or imply any connection with, sponsorship or endorsement by
the Original Author, Licensor and/or Attribution Parties, as appropriate, of You or Your use of the Work, without the separate, express prior written
