Statement of Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio on Bishop Ford Central Catholic High School

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: April 14, 2014

STATEMENT OF BISHOP NICHOLAS DIMARZIO
ON BISHOP FORD CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL

Despite the best efforts and diligent work of the Board of Directors and Faculty of Bishop Ford Central Catholic High School, the school was faced with what became insurmountable challenges. On April 13th, the Board of Directors voted unanimously to close the school at the end of the 2013-2014 academic year.

The Diocese of Brooklyn is committed to assisting the Board of Directors in placing students in the schools of their choice.

This Holy Week, the Bishop Ford Community has a share in the passion of Christ. Our Easter celebration is a reminder that despite suffering, the darkness never overcomes the light.
