Oklahoma's Catholic diocese overcame a major hurdle Monday in its efforts to establish the first government-funded seminary in U.S. history. The Catholic Archdiocese of Oklahoma has applied for a (virtual distance school) called St. Isidore. The school is expected to open its doors for the 2024-2025 school year, accept 500 students in its early stages, and will mainly serve the children of rural Catholic families living far from areas that provide Catholic education.
