Is this school formerly THE HOLY SPIRIT SCHOOL?
ReplyDelete"Is this school formerly The Holy Spirit School?" I'm quite certain it is not. The Holy Spirit School on 46th Street, Borough Park, closed about five or six years ago. There are several miles between 46th Street and East 46th Street in Brooklyn.
