WPCNR SCHOOL DAYS. February 25,2015:

Good Counsel Academy Elementary School, which will open at a new location in September, will begin registration for the next school year tomorrow, Feb. 26 and will host open site visits at the new school on six dates beginning this Friday.

In September, the school  will open at the former Holy Name of Jesus Elementary School at 2 Broadway in Valhalla, just two miles north of its current location at 52 North Broadway in White Plains.

“We are extremely pleased that we will be continuing to offer the same high-quality educational experience and environment for which we have been known for the last 100 years,” said Principal Pamela Matott. “We are very proud of our new location and urge parents and their children to take advantage of our site visits where they can see the new facilities firsthand.  We also welcome parents to contact us to arrange to meet with me and to see our current school in action.  We have a full information package that can be picked up in person or be mailed home. ”

Good Counsel Academy Elementary enrolls students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade.  A private Catholic school sponsored by the Sisters of the Divine Compassion, the school offers a rigorous academic program taught in a nurturing environment, the hallmark of a Good Counsel education. With fewer than two hundred children enrolled per year, the school emphasizes small class size, community involvement and strong character development.

Open site visits at the new school will be held on the following dates and times:

Friday, Feb. 27, 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m.

Sunday, Mar. 1, 8:45 a.m. to 10 a.m.
