Rosati-Kain High School

Parents of Rosati-Kain High School students are feeling hopeful for the school’s future following news that the girls catholic high school will remain open after all.

Groups are forming a 501(c)(3) for each school to fundraise. The St. Mary’s organization hopes to raise $10 million over the next five years.

The Archdiocese of St. Louis has made the decision to close Rosati-Kain and St. Mary’s high schools at the end of this school year.

The Archdiocese of St. Louis recently revealed some of its early bishops and clergy held enslaved people. That includes Bishop William DuBourg and Bishop Joseph Rosati. Now two schools named for the men are reckoning with that history.
