Nationwide, enrollment in Catholic schools is rebounding after years of decline. Schools in the Bay Area are seeing this trend too.
This week the National Catholic Educational Association said enrollment increased at Catholic schools by 62,000 students nationwide, according to the Associated Press. That's the first increase in two decades and the biggest increase in at least five decades. "We are big believers in public education, and I certainly thought public education would be where I would be sending our kids," said Alameda resident Rohit Reddi.
Carey Ragni said she started her daughter in transitional kindergarten at St. Mary in Walnut Creek partly due to the pandemic. Currier said the increase in students is exciting, but he hopes these families are in it for the long run.
