Classes will resume for students of a Maryland Catholic school at a new location after their school’s roof collapsed in the Feb. 6 snowstorm.
The students of St. John School in Hollywood, Maryland, will attend classes in the former Holy Angels-Sacred Heart School in Avenue, Md. for the rest of the school year, the Archdiocese of Washington reported. Classes will resume on Monday.
The damaged school serves 184 students in grades kindergarten through eight. Holy Angels-Sacred Heart was closed in June 2009 because of financial challenges and low enrollment.
Fr. Bill Gurnee, pastor of Holy Angels parish, said the parish was “Very happy to be able to help.”
