(WPXI) — A private high school in the North Hills will shut down at the end of the current school year, according to a press release. School officials with Vincentian Academy said they do “not have the financial resources” to continue offering classes. The Sisters of the Church of Nazareth, which runs the school, have been dealing with issues including declining enrollment and losing money. Vincentian Academy was founded as a school for young women “aspiring to the religious life” 87 years ago. The first students enrolled in 1939, the school became co-ed in 1975 and the facility entered into a partnership with Duquesne University in 1995. Principal/Head of School, Mrs. Rita Canton, said, “I was heartbroken to receive the news that our school is closing. Vincentian Academy is a close-knit family. You have students, parents, teachers who care about each other.” She noted the teachers’ commitment to their students. “We will now work to finish the academic year strong and assist our students and their parents with enrollment into a new school.”
