[quote=Anonymous]Catholics were encouraged to move to Hyattsville and create their own community—mostly apart from the rest of the community. From NPR: “The tightness of the Hyattsville Catholic community developed deliberately, not accidentally. The key figure in its growth was Chris Currie, a former nonprofit executive who moved to Hyattsville 20 years ago and now serves as director of institutional advancement at the parish school. "It started with me inviting people I knew to come here," he says. "My sister's family was the first to move here, followed by a couple of friends. Other families came here to become part of the foundation, and then by word of mouth people heard about it and came here because of the heightened community life." So I don’t know if you’ll have a choice. You might prefer Friends Community School if you have the funds to pay the tuition. [/quote]
