Closing
Saddened at the news of Lansdale

WNPV

What is going on? In the January 31,
2008 issue of the Catholic Standard & Times, there are two references
to the construction of the new school in Hilltown, one on the
cover page, and one on page 27. In both of the articles,
the reference to the new school in Hilltown is prefaced by the
words "Pending funding".

Does this revolving door
remind you of anything? Adm inistrators
come and go - no regard or respect for traditions, no concerns
about the past, and no worries
about the future.
And now the school is stuck with the Philadelphia
Catholic League. What a legacy!

We bid farewell to Father
Maloney and wish him well. He arrived at a time of turmoil with
little briefing
regarding the environment or understanding of the
circumstances. In spite of this, he did his best to fulfill his
role. During his two years, it was apparent that he took his
responsibilities seriously. He was indeed genuine, and it was
difficult not to like him. There was no façade – what you saw
was what he was. At times, it was apparent that he struggled to
fulfill his role and agonized if he offended anyone. He brought
about numerous positive changes for the school and we are
grateful for his commitment to his office. Very few have been
put in a position as he was, and in spite of all the adversity
and problems, he remained positive and committed to his task.
May he go in peace to love and serve the Lord, and know that his
efforts at Lansdale Catholic were appreciated. |

Once again, "Putting Children in
Harms Way"
If the Archdiocese proceeds with
its plans to locate the new high school at the site in
Hilltown Township, it would not be unreasonable to expect
that of the anticipated 1,200 enrollment, probably 800 of
them will have to travel the treacherous and unsafe Hilltown
Pike two times a day.
Is this not a callous disregard
for their safety? Haven't they learned?

Surveys, and enrollment in the Hilltown area grade schools,

The determination,
commitment, and ability of two people started it all back in 1949 as a
parish high school called Little Flower Catholic High School of
Lansdale.
Let us never lose that determination and commitment! |
