St Rose School in New Lexington to Close
COLUMBUS – St. Rose School, a Catholic elementary school located in New Lexington, Ohio, within the Diocese of Columbus, will be closing at the conclusion of the current school year.
“It is with a heavy heart that I write to inform you that St. Rose School will not be able to open for students in the 2021-22 school year,” Father Todd Lehigh, pastor of the Perry County Consortium of Catholic Parishes, said in a letter to school parents informing them of the decision. “Sadly, the projected enrollment and operating expenses are not sufficient enough to justify opening the doors this Fall.”
