The Office of Catholic Schools of the Archdiocese of Newark announced on Wednesday, Feb. 12 that Immaculate Conception High School will be closing in June, after being open for 100 years.
Declining enrollment, ongoing financial challenges and an aging facility were cited as reasons for the closure, the Archdiocese said.
“We deeply regret the necessity of this decision and understand the profound impact it will have on our students, families, faculty and staff,” said Barbara Dolan, Superintendent of Catholic Schools. “Immaculate Conception High School has been a cherished institution for generations, providing a faith-based education that has shaped countless lives. As we move forward, our priority is to support our students and families in their transition while honoring the incredible legacy of ICHS.”
