NEW YORK, NY — Elementary schools throughout the Archdiocese of New York will host an archdiocesan-wide open house event, “Touring Tuesday,” from 9 to 11 a.m. on Tuesday, February 3. The event was originally scheduled for January 27th but postponed due to Winter Storm Juno.
These universal open houses are scheduled throughout the school year and are designed to introduce prospective families to the life-long benefits and value of a Catholic education.
“Touring Tuesdays” offer parents and guardians a way to see Catholic schools in action, and provide families with an opportunity to learn about the admissions process and meet with principals, faculty, other parents and students from Pre-K through Grade 8.
“We welcome families to take part and to see how our values-based curriculum can benefit children academically during their school careers well into college and beyond,” said Dr. Timothy J. McNiff, Superintendent of Schools for the Archdiocese of New York. “Touring Tuesdays provide a great opportunity to see how our well-rounded education and nurturing school communities help children succeed.”
Reservations are required and can be made online at www.buildboldfutures.org or by calling a bilingual hotline, 646-794-2885. For those who cannot attend, school tours can also be arranged by appointment by calling the hotline or making a reservation online.
