Corpus Christi Parish School
Contact: Mrs.
Susan Anaischik
The parish
school seeks to create an environment that encourages all of the
members of the school community to share their faith experiences
with one another. This ease and freedom will further promote and
support the spiritual growth of the parish and world community.. The
school has been staffed by the Sisters of St. Dominic since 1922.
Lay teachers have become an integral part of the Dominican tradition
at Corpus Christi. Academically, the school's standardized testing
scores affirm excellence. In addition to the N.Y S. curriculum in
all subjects, Corpus Christi School is proud of its additional

Evangelization continues to be a priority in our Catholic Education
