In the past several years Meitler has seen a rise in the\nnumber of requests for us to lead new school feasibility studies. Geographically,\nwe have partnered with diocesan, parish and lay leaders across the country in\nTexas, California, Michigan, Idaho, Nebraska, Louisiana, Indiana, Minnesota,\nIllinois, North Carolina, Florida, New Jersey, Kansas, Missouri and West\nVirginia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the Diocese of Austin, feasibility studies led to the\nopening of Santa Cruz Catholic School in Buda (2007and St. Dominic Savio High\nSchool (2009). In the Diocese of Boise, St. Ignatius Catholic School opened in\n2017, has 452 students for 2018-19 and a capacity of 490. In the Diocese of\nGrand Rapids, a new elementary school, St. Robert Catholic School, opened in\nthe 2018-19 school year with a PK-Kindergarten program and will add a grade\neach year to become a full elementary school. Also in 2018-19, St. Jeanne de\nLestonnac High School opened its doors to 9th grade in Temecula, California. Meitler\npartnered with the Archdiocese of New Orleans to study the potential for\nsustaining a special education school, Holy Rosary School. This study led to\nthe opening of St. Therese Academy dedicated solely to serving students with\nexceptional needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other feasibility studies include an elementary school in\nthe Archdiocese of Los Angeles (Simi Valley), a high school in the Archdiocese\nof Indianapolis, two elementary school studies in the Diocese of Austin\n(Leander and East Austin), a Catholic middle\/high school program in Beeville,\nTexas, and a new early childhood education center at the Church of the Ascension\nin North Minneapolis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
