Former schools
St. Gabriel's School in Milford opened in 1965; at the time clergy were the primary teachers. By the 2010s there were fewer clergy teachers, and lay teachers were more expensive; in addition fewer parishioners gave money to the church. By 2016 the school's budget was $111,709 in deficit. In 2008-2009 it had a peak enrollment of 219. In 2014 there was concern expressed about the school's survival expressed in the community, and in 2016 enrollment was down to 139, with 22 being in special education. The school directors chose to close the school in June 2016; the archdiocese did not order the closure.[2]
St. Anthony School in Bristol closed in 2016.[3]
St. Vincent de Paul School in East Haven closed in 2016. That year enrollment was 89.[2]
St. Anthony School was in Winsted, Winchester. It opened in 1865.[4] Circa 2008 it had about 200 students. By 2020 this figure declined to 90.[5] It closed in 2020.[6] At the time it was the oldest school continually operated by the archdiocese.[7]
Sts. Cyril and Methodius School in Hartford closed in 2014. St. Augustine School in Hartford closed in 2016 and merged into a partnership school St. Brigid-St. Augustine.[8] However, that partnership school closed in 2020.[9]
