Regarding Gabriel Richard Catholic High School

Having received the agreement of the moderator of the priests in solidum responsible for Our Lady of the Woods Parish, Woodhaven; Sacred Heart Parish, Grosse Ile; St. Cyprian Parish, Riverview; St. Joseph Parish, Trenton; St. Roch Parish, Flat Rock; and St. Timothy Parish, Trenton, and with the concurrence of the College of Consultors, Archbishop Vigneron issued a decree on June 15, 2024, establishing Gabriel Richard Catholic High School as a public juridic person. This canonical status matches in the Church’s law what the school enjoys as a non-profit corporation in civil law. The school will continue as it has, as a Catholic school, adhering to the Church’s law and policies and procedures for Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Detroit.
