By Sherry Greenfield and Amber South
Herald Mail Media & Public Opinion
Private Catholic schools in the Tri-State area, for the most part, have seen a slight drop in enrollment this school year, school representatives said.
But at least one school in the region says it has seen an increase in enrollment, and most others say the future looks bright for next year s classes. We re experiencing enrollment that is lower due to COVID, but we re seeing a huge interest for next year, said Interim President Tom Burnford of St. Maria Goretti Catholic High School in Hagerstown. Applications are up for next year. There s a lot of interest in Catholic education.
