All Hallows High School in the South Bronx will be closing its doors after this academic year.

All Hallows High School, founded in 1909 by the Congregation of Christian Brothers, will permanently close its doors on June 30, 2025, the school’s board of trustees announced.

Officials cited decades of financial distress and an aging building in need of systemic rehabilitation and upgrades among the reasons for closing the school.

The Archdiocese of New York has been informed of this decision.

Families of students, and members of the faculty and staff, were notified Thursday of the “painful, but necessary” decision to close the 115-year-old college preparatory school on East 164th Street.

All Hallows is the first, and oldest, educational institution that the Christian Brothers established in the United States.
