COVID-19 Resources

Communication regarding school operations during the pandemic will be added to this page as information is obtained from local, state, and federal health and governmental agencies.

The pandemic has severely impacted our financial resources as a school, region, and diocese. Public celebrations of Mass have been reduced, and as a result, collections have been substantially diminished. It is through weekly offertory that parishes are able to support our elementary schools.  In addition, many of our families have been impacted financially by the pandemic and are no longer able to fulfill their tuition obligations.  Finally, nearly all large gathering fundraising events in the spring and summer of 2020 that were major fundraisers for our school, specifically the Fish Fry and summer festival, had to be canceled. At this time, we are uncertain if we will be able to have similar events in 2021. The impact on our school is significant. 

To address these challenges, the North Hills Regional Catholic Elementary Schools (NHRCES) staff has been diligently managing expenses, delaying payments, canceling services where possible, exhausting all existing reserves and pursuing Federal Stimulus programs for disaster relief funding.  Despite these efforts, these realities compromise our ability to operate our school with solvency.   

We ask that you prayerfully consider investing in the future of a student through a gift to our school. As we witness, each day in the success stories of our schools and students, the return on such an investment has no limits.
