Oct. 12--It's a watermark year for Catholic education in Lawrence: The city's original Catholic school is celebrating its 50th year and reclaiming its roots.
And the second school -- which was part of the first the past five years -- is finally getting its own identity.
"I feel like I'm back home," said Pat Newton as she sat in her office at St. John School, 1227 Vt.
For the past five years, Newton was principal of the Lawrence Catholic School.
She shuttled between her office at the school's campus at St. John's and a new school at Corpus Christi Catholic Church across town at 6001 Bob Billings Parkway.
