St. Joseph Hill Academy

St. Joseph Hill Academy is an American private Pre-K 3 through 12th grade Catholic school, located in the Arrochar neighborhood of Staten Island, New York. Located on a scenic 14-acre (57,000 m2) campus (which eponymously stands atop a hill, providing views of the Manhattan skyline), the elementary school is coeducational and serves 500+ students from Pre-K 3 through 8th grade and the high school is all-girls with approximately 400 young women in the 9th through 12th grades. The school was founded and is operated by the Daughters of Divine Charity, although the school is independent of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York. The schools is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. The elementary school principal is Mr. Lawrence Hansen, the high school principal is Dr. Kristin Sherwood, and the president is Sr. Mary Coffelt, FDC. History The school began in March 1919, with the purchase of the 14-acre (57,000 m2) estate of William Knauth by Reverend Mother M. Kostka Bauer. In May of that year, the Daughters of Divine Charity arrived on Staten Island and in the fall inaugurated tutoring classes for a group of twenty-five children who had come to them during the summer. These classes led to the institution of the academy. During the school's early years, it was also a boarding school. The school's first secondary-level classes were begun in 1930, and the first official commencement exercises were held for six high school graduates in June 1934. At that time, the school was affiliated with the Catholic University of America, Washington, D.C. In 1938, the high school department received its charter of recognition and full accreditation from the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York. Since its foundation, multiple projects have been undertaken to provide for the ever-growing needs of the academy. The rapid pace of the school's growth was the prime factor which influenced Mother M. Fidelis Babos, then Provincial Superior of the Daughters of Divine Charity, to formulate plans for the erection of a new high school wing. The new wing was added to the already-existing elementary school building, which had been dedicated in 1953. Accordingly, on August 26, 1956, the groundbreaking ceremony took place for the erection of the present building. On March 23, 1957, Most Reverend Joseph M. Pernicone, Auxiliary Bishop of New York, laid the cornerstone. The formal dedication of the high school building took place on May 22, 1958, conducted by Francis Cardinal Spellman, Archbishop of New York. A construction project began in 1999 was completed during the 2000–2001 school year. A new gymnasium, four additional high school classrooms and a distance-learning lab, to enhance the WITAC (Women Integrating Technology And Curriculum) program, were added to the facilities. In 2009, the annex building Madonna Hall was added, named after the Virgin Mary. Madonna Hall has been transformed into a fully functioning art studio.

St. Joseph by the Sea High School

St. Joseph by-the-Sea High School (also known as SJS or Sea) is a co-educational Catholic school in the Huguenot neighborhood of Staten Island, New York, United States. Though technically an independent school with its own board of trustees, it functions for all intents and purposes as a school of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York. The school serves approximately 1,200 students in 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades. The school property was previously owned by steel magnate Charles M. Schwab, who was developing it as a summer resort. In 1909, he donated it to the Sisters of Charity of New York, as a seaside home for children from the New York Foundling hospital. Then after many years as a children's home and a convent, the Sisters transformed the property into a high school, first for girls in 1963, then co-educational since 1973.

St. Joseph of the Holy Family Church (New York City)

The Church of St. Joseph of the Holy Family is a Black Catholic parish in the Archdiocese of New York, located at 401 West 125th Street at Morningside Avenue in the Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. It is the oldest existing church in Harlem and above 44th Street in Manhattan. On June 28, 2016, it was designated a New York City Landmark. Parish The parish was established in 1859 or 1860 for German Catholics. The first priest to minister to the German-speaking Catholic residents of Manhattanville, was Fr D. F. Hartmann, assigned by the archdiocese in 1859. Services were initially held in the chapel on the grounds of the Academy of the Sacred Heart. Although the building has remained in one location, street name changes in Harlem have affected the address. The address listed in 1892 was at 125th Street and the corner of 9th Avenue. The parish, which has since become associated with the African-American community sponsors a weekly food pantry and clothing bank for the community. Architecture Built before the American Civil War, the Romanesque Revival red brick church was built and dedicated in 1860. However, the city Landmarks Preservation Commission interprets the church as an example of the Rundbogenstil design. "St. Joseph’s was not a revival of Romanesque architecture but a new design based on abstracted and simplified interpretation of the Romanesque." Its German style reflects the heritage of the original parishioners, and is also in keeping with the rural nature of the area at the time of construction. Constructed of brick, it has a single bell tower and rounded arched windows. It was enlarged in 1871 and altered in 1889 by the Herter Brothers. As part of the alteration, the window over the entrance became a niche for a statue of St. Joseph holding the infant. School The church had a school and convent affiliated with it, which were located in the former Manhattanville Presbyterian Church, a Greek Revival structure directly behind the church. The parish school was among 27 in the Archdiocese of New York closed by Archbishop Dolan on January 11, 2011.

St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery

De St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery is een kerkgebouw in de Amerikaanse stad New York. Het is een parochiekerk van de Episcopaalse Kerk gebouwd in 1795 op East 10th Street. De kerk bevindt zich op de kruising van Stuyvesant Street en Second Avenue in de bekende wijk East Village in Lower Manhattan. Het pand is al meer dan drie en een halve eeuw zonder onderbreking de plaats van christelijke aanbidding, waardoor het de oudste site van New York is die een onafgebroken locatie was van een religieuze praktijk. De structuur is het op een na oudste kerkgebouw in Manhattan. In 1651 kocht Peter Stuyvesant, directeur-generaal van Nieuw-Nederland, land voor een Bowery of boerderij van de West-Indische Compagnie en bouwde in 1660 een familiekapel op de huidige plaats van de kerk van St. Mark. Stuyvesant stierf in 1672 en werd begraven in een gewelf onder de kapel. De achterkleinzoon van Stuyvesant, Petrus, verkocht het eigendom van de kapel aan de Episcopaalse Kerk voor $1 in 1793, waarin werd bepaald dat een nieuwe kapel zou worden opgericht om Bowery Village te dienen, de buurt die tot stand was gekomen rond de familiekapel van de Stuyvesants. In 1795 werd de hoeksteen van de huidige St. Mark's kerk gelegd, en de in veldsteen en Georgiaanse stijl opgetrokken kerk, gebouwd door de architect en metselaar John McComb Jr., werd voltooid en gewijd op 9 mei 1799. Alexander Hamilton verleende rechtsbijstand bij het opnemen van St. Mark's als de eerste Episcopale parochie onafhankelijk van Trinity Church in de Verenigde Staten. In 1807 had de kerk al circa 200 parochianen in de zomer en zo'n 70 in de winter. In 1828 werd de kerktoren in de Griekse revivalstijl opgericht, waarvan het ontwerp wordt toegeschreven aan Martin Euclid Thompson en Ithiel Town. Er kwamen meer veranderingen aan in het begin van 1835, toen John C. Tucker's Stone parochiecentrum werd gebouwd, en het volgende jaar (1836) de kerk zelf werd gerenoveerd, waarbij de originele vierkante pilaren werden vervangen door dunnere exemplaren in Egyptische revivalstijl. Daarnaast werd de huidige gegoten en smeedijzeren hek geplaatst in 1838. Al deze renovaties worden toegeschreven aan een van de architecten van de kerktoren, Thompson. Rond dezelfde tijd werd de twee verdiepingen tellende zondagsschool in veldsteen voltooid, en de kerkparochie startte een kleuterschool voor arme kinderen. Het bouwwerk werd op 19 april 1966 een New York City Landmark en op 19 juni 1972 opgenomen in het National Register of Historic Places. Onder meer Peter Stuyvesant, Daniel Tompkins en Matthew Calbraith Perry werden bij de kerk begraven, hoewel het lichaam van die laatste nadien werd opgegraven en herbegraven in Newport, Rhode Island.

Both attended the chapel at St. Martin's Academy. In 1914, "the parishioners number[ed] 800. The church property [was] valued at $150,000, with a debt of $21,000." Buildings Before the present Modernist brick and concrete church was built, a large stone-towered Protestant-looking church was in use as photographed in 1914, which likely indicates the congregation had purchased and reused an existing church building before erecting the present structure. St. Martin of Tours' Parish School The parochial school was established after 1914. The parish school was among 27 closed by Archbishop Dolan in the Archdiocese of New York on 11 January 2011.
