| Additional Information: | In 1956, ten acres of land bounded by Hilltop Drive, Delahaut, and Libal Streets was purchased by the Catholic Diocese of Green Bay for future church use. However, it was not until September of 1963 that Bishop Stanislaus Vincent directed the establishment of Resurrection Catholic Church and School. The Green Bay firm of Berners, Schober and Kilp was commissioned to design the school and convent building. Construction of the school began in July of 1964. In the fall of 1965, Resurrection Catholic School opened for enrollment for kindergarten through eighth grade, initially staffed by nine of the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Third Order of St. Francis of Stevens Point, Wisconsin. In 2011, Resurrection Catholic School officially joined the GRACE school system, comprised of ten Green Bay area Catholic Schools. The school continues to operate to this day and serves students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. |
