Call it the Miracle of Drexel Hill.
Never let it be said that the proud tradition of Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast high schools went down without a fight.
As Archbishop Charles Chaput mulls a decision on whether to grant their appeal of the archdiocese Blue Ribbon Commission’s recommendation that both Delco schools be closed, alumni are giving him 1,345,511 reasons why that would be a good idea.
That is the astounding sum of money friends and alumni of the two schools have raised in just a few weeks since the recommendation was made public.
We’ll have representatives from the school and alumni groups on with us tonight for our live-stream Internet show, “Live From the Newsroom,” tonight to update their fundraising efforts and when they expect to hear from the archdiocese.
Tune in at 7 and join in the live chat. If you have a question you’d like me to ask them, feel free to email it to me at editor@delcotimes.com.
