GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — While Catholic schools across the country have experienced a decline in enrollment due to the pandemic, the Catholic Diocese of Green Bay says they are seeing the opposite.
The organization reported a 4.8% enrollment increase between 2020-2021.
“We’ve not seen this many students enrolled since the 2014-2015 school year,” said Todd Blahnik, Superintendent of Schools. “What’s unique about the growth, is that it is spread throughout our entire 16 county area. From the northern schools to Oshkosh, we have seen families continue to choose to send their children to our Catholic schools.”
Blahnik attributes the growth to a few things: In-person classes were offered the entire 2020-2021 school year and its staff’s support of families during the pandemic.
