Long week for Bonner-Prendie, Catholic schools

It promises to be a very long week for the boosters of Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast high schools.

While no one will confirm it for us, it is beginning to sound more and more as if the much-anticipated ruling on their appeal to stay open will be made on Friday.

Originally Archbishop Charles Chaput had indicated he would make his decision tomorrow. That apparently got pushed back because of the details surrounding the funeral for Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua.

Now it looks like Friday is the day. If that changes we’ll let you know.

We’ll obviously have full coverage as soon as it breaks.

It will also be a big day for several archdiocesan grade schools in Delco that likewise filed formal appeals to the Blue Ribbon Commission’s recommendation that they be closed.

Stay tuned. And by all means, if you hear anything, feel free to email me at editor@delcotimes.com, or tweet me at @philheron. Or just pick up the phone and call me at 610-622-8818.

And most of all, keep the faith!
