Episcopal News Service. May 13, 1992 [92116L]

The New York State Supreme Court approved the Episcopal Diocese of Long Island's plan to reopen a parochial school in Garden City, thereby turning aside an attempt by a group of parents and alumni to gain control of the school. In a decision issued on March 31, Justice John Lockman said that the diocese must reopen the school by September 1993 and also form a new board of governors for the school.
