"While we commend everyone who has taken action to keep Preston open, we must reiterate that the decision to close the school is final," the board said in a statement. "We will not be entertaining any circumstances that would alter this fact. The leadership of the Sisters of the Divine Compassion support this decision. We encourage the community to redirect their energy to support the needs of Preston students, faculty and staff during this last academic year. We do not want to foster false hope that any ongoing attempts will reverse the closing of the school."
