AWHS considers its future

The story in this week's Olean newspaper makes it pretty plain that financial hard times are upon Archbishop Walsh High School. Emails have come forth from alumni to other alumni sharing the news. Challenges have come forth to raise funds, either from individual alums or to be gathered from entire class years. A big meeting is scheduled at the school tomorrow to weigh whether AWHS has a future beyond this year. Enrollment today is below 100 students. [Hey, my graduating class in 1967 was larger.] Fact is, parishes in Western New York have closed and there appear to be far fewer potential recruits to attend the school. What's to be done? Let the discussion begin; your comments are welcome.
