Currents News Special Broadcast: “School Year in Review”

Currents News, New York’s nightly Catholic television newscast, will premiere a “School Year in Review” special featuring stories highlighting the achievements of students and educators within the Catholic schools and academies throughout Brooklyn and Queens.

The “School Year in Review” will air on Friday, June 13, 2025, at 7 p.m. Currents News anchor Christine Persichette will host this special kickoff to Summer 2025, looking back at some of the best moments in and out of the classroom.

The stories will include:

*An in-depth look into how Catholic schools in Brooklyn and Queens are outperforming New York City public schools.

*A dual language program at a Queens academy that helped a non-English speaking student learn the language and succeed.

*A dive into the digital world with one elementary school whose students are producing their own podcast. 

*How a Catholic high school in Queens reinvented itself and is now welcoming younger students into its hallowed halls.

*Why building bonds between student and teacher at one Brooklyn high school starts on the dance floor.

“School Year in Review” highlights the good news of Catholic education throughout Brooklyn and Queens. “It’s not just about excellence in academics—it’s about forming young people who lead with faith, integrity, and purpose,” said Deacon Kevin McCormack, the Superintendent of Schools. “As we look to 2026 and beyond, our mission is clear: to build schools that families believe in, communities rally around, and students are proud to call home.”
