St. Elizabeth School has some wonderful news to share! In the next few years, the SES campus will be completely transformed under the auspices of Project CAMPUS, an exciting new initiative that will create an expanded, revitalized, and safer campus. The impetus of the project began with the need to create a safer bus route for loading and unloading students. Currently, a procession of buses lines the street each day, waiting to pick up students or unload them off the bus, while also competing with cars entering and exiting the school parking lot. The stars began to align when SES was able to purchase the land behind our building (previously owned by our founding Sisters, the Franciscan Sisters of Baltimore who later merged with the Sisters of St. Francis of Assisi). In addition, the SES Foundation has been exploring ways to expand the capacity of the SES campus in accordance with the school’s strategic plan.
What does this mean for St. Elizabeth School?
Project CAMPUS will allow St. Elizabeth School to Create Access, More Parking, and a Unified Site. In other words, a safer school for a safer community.
