In Brooklyn, NY some of the Catholic schools are threatened with closure. The local government is concerned, the students would attend local schools that are already at near capacity. When the public systems had to improve the educational system they reduced class sizes (still not as small as private schools) and to make budget removed or reduced many extra curricula activities. The Diocesan and other Catholic schools may want to:
- Increase class sizes, still less than the public schools and
- Share extra curricula activities with other schools.
According to The Tidings Southern California Weekly one suggestion is for the Diocese of Brooklyn and the city of New York to cooperate and possibly convert the schools into charter schools.
What would be the long ter effects of Diocese Schools closing.
