Catholic School Closes
Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic School in Cape May will close after the 2010 school year.

CAPE MAY - Parents of children attending Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic school received letters from the Diocese of Camden today saying the school will close at the end of the 2010 school year.

The letter cited declining enrollment as the reason to close the K-8 school in Cape May and merge with St. Ann's school in Wildwood.

But the decision to merge comes only two years after a Catholic school merger that sent students to Our Lady Star of the Sea from St. Raymond's Regional School in 2007.
