Since 1862, the Holy Child Sisters have founded more than 20 schools in the U.S. Although many of these schools continue to educate thousands of children every year, some have closed. Alums of all Holy Child Schools—regardless of whether the school is open or has closed—are an integral and much-valued part of our Holy Child family.
