East Shoreline Catholic Academy’s (ESCA) Graduating Class of 2019

Congratulations to East Shoreline Catholic Academy's (ESCA) Class of 2019!

Congratulations to East Shoreline Catholic Academy’s (ESCA) Class of 2019! Many of our students will attend the following Catholic high schools in the fall: Laurelton Hall, Sacred Heart Academy, Mercy High School, Xavier High School and Notre Dame High School.

Prior to graduation ESCA students were treated to a renewing and spiritual retreat at Holy Family Passionist Retreat Center in West Hartford. The students participated in small-group discussions, prayer, mass, lunch and sharing with each other as a way to wind down and center from the whirlwind of fun activities within the past month, such as winning the State Mock Trial Middle School Championship, a trip to NYC, performing in a weekend long musical “Newsies The Musical”, and Class Night at Wood Winds (just to name a few).

East Shoreline Catholic Academy (ESCA) is the successor school of St. Mary School in Branford and Our Lady of Mercy School in Madison. Dedicated to the vision of providing high quality Catholic education to families and students from Pre-K3 to Grade 8 on the east shoreline of Connecticut, this collaboration resulted in a single campus located at the site of the former St. Mary School: 62 Cedar Street, Branford, CT 06405. Saint Margaret Parish, Madison, Saint George Parish, Guilford, and Saint John Bosco Parish of Branford continue to support ESCA as they did with our heritage schools.
