Our Lady of Guadalupe Academy to host farewell block party
Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Academy has closed his doors forever. But the historic Bensonhurst school is giving former students one last chance to revel in their happy memories of days gone by.
The school officially closed last week more than 90 years after it first opened. The last day of classes was June 21.
An announcement was posted on the academy’s Facebook page last week inviting the community to attend a special mass at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church on the morning of Saturday, June 29, followed by a block party on the street outside the school in the afternoon.
