A 138-year-old Catholic school in California has suddenly shut down after running out of money — just days after the Archdiocese of San Francisco agreed to pay nearly $400 million to hundreds of alleged clergy sex abuse survivors in one of the largest settlements of its kind. Families at St. Brigid Academy in San Francisco were blindsided Thursday when told the school would permanently close and that deposits for the $20,950 annual tuition would be refunded later this summer.
