In 1957, Maria Regina High School was proposed by Cardinal Spellman and opened, temporarily, in what is now our convent. The Sisters of the Resurrection were tasked with founding the first Archdiocesan girls’ high school in Westchester County, which they did with love and devotion. The building of the new school soon began, and on February 2, 1959, Maria’s first freshmen and sophomores walked across the temporary gravel path to our current school. Maria Regina has and will continue to be a stronghold of Catholic education. For sixty-five years, over nine thousand young women have graduated from this school and have gone on to higher education, well prepared for their future endeavors attributable to the instruction and guidance they received from a truly dedicated staff. |
