Cathedral School in 2024 NYC  Hellenic Independence Parade Shows Enthusiasm and Loyalty

The Archdiocesan School of the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity is  at 319–337 East 74th Street on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City. The school is part of the national cathedral of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, and the episcopal seat of Archbishop Elpidophoros of America. Mrs. Merope Kyriacou is the Principal.

The Cathedral School was originally established to serve Greek families. It has evolved into an educational institution that embraces diversity. The school has a broader mission of promoting Hellenism that instills creativity and academic excellence among its graduates. They carry the values and cultural heritage, guiding them throughout their lives.”

I have spent 50 years of my life, promoting Greek language, education, and religion in parochial schools. I will remain loyal to the Greek parochial schools to the end
