Renaming School After Luxury Trip Fallout

After a scandal rocked the school board—four trustees spent nearly $200,000 on luxury trips to Italy instead of buying religious art—the school is getting a fresh start with a new name. The former Padre Pio Catholic Secondary School is now poised for a rebrand, with community input set to shape its future identity. While the Education Minister demanded repayment and tried to remove one trustee, they resigned without paying back their share. With construction underway, the board is turning the page, aiming to inspire pride and refocus on student success as they launch a naming process in fall 2026.
