Other local media on hand for yesterday's meeting..

The Hazleton STANDARD SPEAKER writes..
"Approximately 400 members of the Cardinal Brennan High School community, including students, parents, faculty, administration and alumni, gathered Sunday in the field house on school’s Fountain Springs campus to gather information about the future of the financially struggling high school. The group learned of the scheduled meeting Wednesday of last week in a letter mailed from the Allentown diocese to the home of each student.
According to the letter, the school’s declining enrollment and increasing indebtedness prompted the Diocesan Pastoral Council, at the recent conclusion of the Second Synod, to recommend an examination of the feasibility of continuing to offer Catholic education at Cardinal Brennan.
"

WNEP report:
"Students brought signs and songs, singing the school's alma mater. The school gym was packed with parents and students, all concerned about their school's future"
