"Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated!" --Mark Twain

Contrary to persistent rumors, there are no plans, nor have there been discussions of plans to close St. Martin of Tours School!

For full information about the state of the school, the future plans for the school and our continuing health and vitality, please contact Father Kindon or Mrs. Florian.  Either of us will be happy to discuss your concerns and enroll or re-enroll your children for school year 2010/2011.

Thank you for your attention to this notice.
