Committed to Faith
and Learning
Resurrection Catholic School opened its doors to students in 1991 as a consolidation of several Lancaster City Catholic schools. As we approached the close of the 2024 – 2025 school year, it was with heavy hearts that we announced that Resurrection Catholic School would close at the end of the school year.
The Legacy of Resurrection Catholic School will remain strong. We are forever grateful for all they have done.
