The original St. Aloysius School served local students from the early 1900’s until 1970. When it was announced in late 2015 that St. Mary’s School in the neighboring town of Ware would close, former parents and teachers approached the Roman Catholic Diocese of Worcester about forming an independent Catholic School in the St. Aloysius School building. With generous encouragement of the Diocese, its Catholic schools and Pastor Richard Lembo, St. Aloysius Catholic School was formed and opened its doors at the start of the 2016-2017 school year.
